He left

His eyes

Empty 

  Gazing

And into

The relentless sun

It glowed

With words 

          Laced

Yellow darts

Vibrancy fading

Poisonous

  and 

    Falling 

From lips

Cracked 

A black tar

Long-

dripping

Into tequila

*Splashing*

Into worms

Three-headed

Tangled 

With demons

And dreams

Translucent

His light 

Soul dimming

Into the expansive

Universe

Of stars

And shadows
