i fell into a star
made of molten cobwebs
held aloft by a cold morning thaw
of random perverse and pensive wishes
you fell into a moon
a solstice of stagnated sorrow
you seemed to revel in the blight
it made your dark side shine
i fell into another me
enveloped in a cold slow burn
i sweated until i shivered
and then i kept falling
you fell into you
and then you fell into me
chaotic collision of cold comfort
better than nothing
we hovered above this world of ours
angles and perceptions skewed
we could see from every side
except each others

The Devil's Cut
“Comrade, finally you’re awake.” The voice was smooth, sensual. A flickering incandescent bar was all that lit the white, sterile room. All Vladimir remembered was everything going black. He tried to move his arms and found them strapped to the gurney.

Woah. "angles and perceptions skewed we could see from every side except each others" Always finishing with a punch.
This poem is something else. "i fell into a star / made of molten cobwebs" is such a wild way to describe something and I can see it so perfectly. This is Top Story material, to me. Gorgeous poem!
A solstice is stagnated sorrow, damn
