The Chrysoprase Codex:A Centenary Of Sesquipedalian Sorrows

Sonnet V: The Apothecary of Aether

The monster’s maw, a chasm of decay,Revealed a hoard of vials, crystalline,Where liquid starlight in its slumber lay,Distilled from nebulae and breath divine.Each phial held a memory of a worldBefore the advent of the entropic rust,Ere galaxies were into darkness hurledAnd empires crumbled into stygian dust.He grasped a flask of iridescent hue—The Panacea of the Primal Will—As shadows of the antediluvian crewBegan to gather, ominous and still.The glass pulsed with a low, thrumming heat,A rhythm like a dying universe’s beat.
