201 Dead Stars For Erde's Diadem Poem by Sebastian Priotese

201 Dead Stars For Erde's Diadem



Dear, livid Erde,
they've made you a diadem
with artillery and uric acid-saturated
wings. It was hollow and bland,
of a blue so immaculate
that it SCREAMED to be spattered.
201 stars have died to make it nicer,
burning like orchid buds drowned in
luciferine - 201 librarian stars
have fallen with tomes in their hands,
fired for teaching the knowledge of the
owls to the crows.
