A Dance of Gemini - A pair--ashen and melancholy Joined together by the heart They vowed to never part, Stitched their hands together With sharpened baby's bone Strands from the girl's gown Frayed hair from the boy's scalp. - They licked the blood that flowed from the holes War paint and lipstick and crayons Melted on translucent flesh, Vowed it would make them one Lip prints tattooed to skin and soul Desperation adorned with hope The Gemini fled this Cimmerian sphere.
