Cloud Nine

This poem is one I wrote a while ago, I'm not sure what brought it on...
Anyway, critical comments are appreciated and I would love to hear what people think!
So without further ado, here is Cloud Nine
Cloud Nine
Haze
 stroke withdrawn cheeks
I wish to feel your depth,
suppleness of your nonentity in my
Clammed, sticky palms

Oh and how you look tonight
You knew it was an occasion to be remembered
To be hallowed
Heads will roll, to undergo
that essence of baptism


Once upon the hours of owls
 Held out a dove
And gave me a slice of
Cloud nine,
Which is what was, and now is mine.

Nightfall has a frayed black halo,
these echoes shall ring through horns

With remembrance, bound upon spite
In Twilight - I shall mourn.
