Archon's Atrophy.Sonnet 36

 The Ink-Stained Avatar of Awe

The glass explodes in shards of violet fire,As purple ichor seeps into her veins,To tune her sinews like a silver lyre,And wash away the Censor’s charcoal stains.She stands, a silhouette of liquid light,Against the Tyrant’s grey and ghostly wall,A beacon in the artificial night,To catch the sentences before they fall.From every pore, a jet of meaning flows,In iridescent, incandescent streams,To color in the petals of the rose,And manifest the fabric of her dreams.The girl is gone; a Goddess takes her place,With all of history written on her face.
