Petrified Petrichor
Betwixt two seas of storms and ill trouble
Thee findeth rorschach in the regolith
Thy vision now double on this bubble
Whence tree trolls fell to become megalith
Thee findeth thy love deep and mercy unstrain’d
With pearly eyes and pallid coral bones
Eroding thy dim sight to be tear-stain’d
Thee crave destined duels of aghast hormones
Standing petrified whey-faced like driftwood
Thee findeth thyself challenged by envy
Halcyon waters rushed through childhood
Existence feeleth f’rev’r frenzy
Bit of petrichor is what will linger
So yond oceanmaster betrays as ‘twere
