'And with the eschaton of closing time
they say a great gleam of softest light will fall.
And our children's faceless children
will form a circle around us, holding hands.
And they will watch us all, opaque-eyed,
sinking together, one by one, bubbling down.'

@acidbathpublishing.bsky.social's 5th anthology is a literary orgy of hedonistic pleasures & morning-after penance.

I am reminded that 201 years ago yesterday, 16 July 1824, Lord Byron was buried within his family vault.

I felt proud to have honoured Byron on the bicentenary of his death last year with this poem.

Sharing a recently published piece – 'An Unbroken Tale of Dull Sadness' – as part of the 'Poets' Walk' project, written in response to themes inspired by Coleridge's 'The Eolian Harp'.

For all those caught in lasting desolation & swept along in the tragic dance. 🖤
