Within, the Secrets of Whim

As to when,
the pen falls eerily.
The sadness of lust,
a perilous dusk
for thee that settles 
upon the many wary.

As Edgar's Lenore,
reminded,
the Crow's greed
and nestle.
There spied the 
Raven,
crying for thee
the more merrily.

When lovers' qualm
exacted by traitor,
the courtships of 
evermore befallen.
The arduous array
of made up serenity.

This fate of endeavor,
by virtue a Luciferus
fate for all.  As
pride brings forth
the epic of death,
an epitome of 
angel tyranny.

As hurt and loss
gives way to 
pain and admiration,
the feelings of turmoil
to squall, as decadence
and poetic duration.

When the fruit of 
thine, your own merriment
of pleasure, the tragedies
of myth, of present, and 
of now, found only to 
riddle life's cessation.

Of need, of ignorance,
of majesty, an infinity
of the divine.  There 
lies within, the secrets
of whim, shared your 
good wife to mine.

As the penniless plot
the treasure of devilish
wanton, a fortuitous
abandon of thee,
perhaps a chance 
prick, nay an Edgar
once daringly. . .
a ripe shaft of vein.

When the virtue of 
nothingness, outwits
the logic of reason,
there lies the devil
grinning amidst 
treason.

As Gods shed their 
Grace, and Goddesses 
parlay the hearkened
measure.  The knowledge
of gay ole Lucifer, 
their brother, 
their undine
of Seraphic treasure.

As the winds that chime
and as the clouds that billow,
questions we
can not, our love
the lesser.
