    If love distills your vapor in its wake,
    I'll take those crumbs.
    I take you, of blood and of scar.
    Time's embrace has been far more cruel.
    No empty-bottle dreams tonight.
    I always bore that beast,
    fang and froth.
    It tempts, it taints
    under a whispered shackle.    ​

    This is a great write, unconventional English. Almost as if it was originally written in a different language. Was that the case? Or please share the influence. Greetings poet!

    Thanks for swinging by! No, that wasn't the case. I'm bilingual. Granted, it obviously wasn't written in the minimalist or coloquial styles that are generally prevalent these days. Intentionally. But I didn't want it to sound pompous either. Maybe it did! :)

    Cheers.
