Remarkable work.  There were so many fabulous line that jumped out at me but this one (for whatever reason) lingers with me:  You've blackened the stars, shrouded the skies
Silenced the innocents' woeful cries

This poem is crammed full of wicked imagery, cunning words and overall, a spectacular talent for causing me to shiver in admiration... well done!!

The speculum shatters, its frame ablaze
Your chosen path now through a circle of fire
Trodden by each one of a million liars...

 

These last three lines have left me on the edge of my seat yet again....

These poems are intense and take time for me to read.  I haven't had time today so I'll make sure read them tomorrow during a quiet moment.

Endgame: The Burning Speculum

Another truly great entry in your Endgame saga.  As I have said before, as I read these poems, I kept thinking about commenting on certain passages, but the great lines and thoughts just kept on coming.  So I again am commenting on the whole poem.  This is very well said.  Very powerful.  Each piece of the series is truly marvelous. When all of the pieces are together, this can be considered a true masterpiece.
