Saturn's rings ((ten slashes))

Ten slashes on a luminescent strip
white burning red into the darkness
stars fall unto the dirty pureness
a more bitter-sweet night has ne'er been witnessed

Ten slashes, nine screams burst forth
echoing off into saturn's lovely rings
alone in a universe of awesome proportion
sweet copper taste..rust in an innocent mouth

Gagging on caustic situations
screaming at love and hate, it's all the same
Saturn's rings encircling tiny wrists
blood trickles, pooling in stars' shadows
