Sean Leonard - The Tragedie of Guinevere

Sisyphus in gold
Suffer now, glory is old
Tears in silver, blood in gold
Wasted names are writ in stone
Glory needs no quill to hold
Your kiss is poison
Auburn curls, the swaying ocean
Eden whole, your love is cloven
He heard your whispered plea
Your slender throat, the hell you opened
Silent in prayer
Bruised knees and braided hair
Thread the needle, mend the tear
Isaac held below the edge
Flayed skin, matted hair/Yahweh's share
The king stands alone
You could crush his aging bones
Conjure tears, shake with groans
The queen is made of candlesticks
Light her wick, red and gold
Keep staring down
Douse your thoughts with cooling crown
Compromised, they've dug your ground
You bared your heart, they let it bleed
And blood forever is your gown
