Dorothy On Her Deathbed

A death just imposed by the invisible cullers
myself catching tracing graduations the colours

the artist in me myself instinctively tracing 
work a share miseries to inspiration making

graduations of deaths colours on her lovely face
lost my anchor heart lost no longer in her embrace

a rationale left with me just slashing poor word strokes
lovely Dorothy gently softly escapes her yokes

by submission 
I must hold her for one last embrace
