The Mermaid V.VIII.2018

Waves colder over my sails -
Visions of doom and the frauds I despise;
Mermaid so cruel and her somber long veils -
Bottomless fall in a circle of lies.

In this wasteland I can nothing to do - 
So tonight I will die on this shores;
When truth become lie, and lie become true
In the hands remain only dust and remorse.

The map to the future lies ragged apart,
The compass to home is broken -
Then my dreams will be the very worst part,
When everything evil became done, not just spoken.

...A mermaid so cruel and her soulless veils -
Bottomless fall in a circle of lies;
Waves darker, waves colder over my sails -
Visions of doom and impending demise.
