Glopowrimo 29 second prompt

Glopowrimo 29 second prompt

First line... Dew on the digital print
Last line... The colour after blood has drained.

Dew on the digital print
My soul absolved of succubus guilt
I have transferred mildewed memories
In the House of Dreams rebuilt.

The finer details go missing
The cathartic core remains
Soft shaded nuances bypassed
Spiritum vitae retained.

How I stoked your sentiments
Under the resolute rubicon sun
My sins of commission
Your sins of omissions
Like blood on  vellum runs.

A clinical digital print out
Of another imperfect  time
When the well of thought ran deep
An offset world where a lithograph print
Engraved, was a memory we'd forever keep.

Now  you do your dance
A daughter and son
Gracious by your side
I shed a drop
Of sweet requiem
And set the digital print aside.

Moving on with firm
Digital stroke
To another page
Another print
Another world
Upon queued up walls
Thus I evoke
Choice memories
Vicariously,
Impotently.

Wounds
No more
Stigmata for
Repentant soul
A war Glory
In pensive zone
The insipid sepia
After tones
Retrospective mural
Cold blooded runes
The colour after
Blood has drained.
