Antares eve

Rose rocks bloom from the scorpion's heart,
denser than dark silhouettes
tarrying beneath their feeble shadows.
Beyond, the salmon city yawns
magnificent in polished apathy.
The gradation of glints on ancient skyscrapers
calligraphs pale histories
in logograms buzzing with latent aspiration.
Salmon sky airbrushed,
darling haze.
Domes, the erstwhile temples
Absorbing fuchsia balm,
Sit neglected under hedonism's fist.
Lemonade, honey in roux of saffron,
to reach a pallid hand
through the bodice of our dying matron's glow
may be the only gesture
that can save our fading love.
