Enigmatic Ellipsis

Cinderella-starved
ruby cobwebs
splintered synapses shriek
gauzy misfirings
fuel someone else
dart gasp gulp dig clasp.

Crucifixion cracks bone marrow grins
as bloodless knuckles 
clench in synch 
with pitted teeth,
exposing snow-capped
cavernous amber coffer, 
this sacred land mine.

Massacred mentality
single-handed 
sun-scorched some day
horizon materializing 
dimmed rays, dampened doom
fairy godmother 
pharmaceutical screenplay.

Threadbare throat
tick-swallow-tock
stroke of somnolent surge
exhale at last as slippered glass
grants breath, 
three hours at best.

Plastic smack of lips
suckle-sputter
handmade quicksand
