Blue Tuesday

Draco Why,

          Why are my dreams of Lazuli blue?

Why Draco, why does he fuel my melancholy?

His lapis effigy sleeps next my long cold heart,

We sold his morrows!!!!

For an infinity of morrows,

Why Draco why?

He was our human son.

Your black and blue eternal widow.

bleeding blue heart

My darkest widow,

 Be blue widow be blue,

Keep the effigy near his memory lives

With us his ripped jeans

 stained in his blue blood keeps

our morrows eternal.

Our royal son,

had to die human,

to protect us in

our self-loathing.

From the love of

others religious faith.

Keeping our dark love dark.

Your eternally blue Darco.

  3. I was intrigued by the shift from ‘Draco’ to ‘Darco’ and had to look up the names. I discovered that Draco was the first recorded legislator of Athens in Ancient Greece, who replaced the prevailing system of oral law and blood feud by a written code to be enforced only by a court of law. I could only find ‘Johnny Darko’, the character from the film who is troubled by visions of a mysterious giant blue rabbit. And then I read Bev’s comment and now I want to know more. Why does his lapis effigy sleep next to your long cold heart’ and how and why were his morrows sold?

    1. Sorry to say it Kim but the switch from Draco to Darco is a typo I had no intention to swap the name. I will correct when I can get to where I have it saved. Johnny darko is a great film please watch if you have not yet(it is a bit freaky). Draco I picked because of its dragon connections. The lapis effigy is of draco and his widows son. They are vampires who had a son when they where human. They are blue because they miss him.

  6. The first is Draco, the second Darco. I know it’s just a typo, but I think it’s a fortuitous one. The pair of poems is already intriguing, in a dark, unsettling way, and the change of name increases the feeling that the reader doesn’t know what’s going on.
