Downstream Poem by Victor Adex

Downstream
The sacred tears of angels flow
Into rapids barren of love

Downstream
The blood of the innocent falls
Into sacrificial bowls of violence

Downstream
The waterfalls of fleshy reaper
Descend souls into heavens of hell

Downstream
The torrents of life
Reverses tide on the hill of chaos

Downstream
The avalanche of gods
Moves glaciers for the fallen

Downstream
Dark caves of springing streams
Trickles to merriment of abrupt deserts

Downstream
Shall there be no priest or voice
To the baptismal of messiahs?
