melancholic miles

take life, o master of the house
peel the brown skin of sunshine days
now burned in so many ways

walk the melancholic miles
passing those memories, the piles
of smouldering bones to douse

with no sweetened pill
see the traits in captured souls
through transparent hearts, so quiet

an unrelenting quenching of stars
not matched by born intellect
to translocate or protect

here then is no circle to revere
nor deity to fear
but a mere accumulation of scars

for this is life as it will
having the fractures and holes
eating a godless diet
