THE DEITY

Even as I create I am disappearing.
I spend myself on a world that rarely cares.
Weighed down with sacks of cast-offs,
spinning them all into threads
of blood-streaked gold.

Folded realms that speak only to me,
faint spirits in poison dust,
avoiding the telescopes.
Ropes of ectoplasm jutting
from ecstatic wounds.
