A toxic hue fans out across the globe,
infecting the hills and herds of people,
the various populous, causing pangs
of endless delusion to rage
across the spacetime
of a planet already faltering.
slier floe ,,
ra(w)mous bramble ,,
unblenched neap ,,
balloonish idiom ,,
aerial chuzzle ,,
the sun skims across their faces everyday
razing red-hot and cancerous skin
in time all the stones will turn black
and melt away like Icararuswings.
