Intermediaries
Emissaries flanking
The sacrifice
Its contorted visage
Inlaid into
The aqueduct
Traversed by
The fluids of righteousness
Corroding the walls
Carving cavities
GATEWAYS
Into dreaded realms
Slowly distilled
By silt, bone, and vellum
Miles away from salvation and grace
It drips from the snouts
Of the most inquisitive of beasts
Its digestion mediated by none
Robes suffocating cobblestone
Banners of decadence
Obscuring distributaries
Water flowing out
Unseen from the riverbank
Satiated of all desire
Beasts burrow through
Rock, then wire
To the other side
The sacrifice
Its contorted visage
Inlaid into
The aqueduct
Traversed by
The fluids of righteousness
Corroding the walls
Carving cavities
GATEWAYS
Into dreaded realms
Slowly distilled
By silt, bone, and vellum
Miles away from salvation and grace
It drips from the snouts
Of the most inquisitive of beasts
Its digestion mediated by none
Robes suffocating cobblestone
Banners of decadence
Obscuring distributaries
Water flowing out
Unseen from the riverbank
Satiated of all desire
Beasts burrow through
Rock, then wire
To the other side
