Spinning Pt. II: unfinished, but a decent start

Spinning Pt. II
Lucent ceramics leak color
Like a faucet bludgeoned 
Shards sear my skin

Scathed like Dante’s 
Scratched like stone
Each twenty-four hours a sentence

Dour inferno slashes then retracts
A reaper grim, tingling to hover
To claim your life

Swinging jagged foil
Contorted like a sculpture  
Strikes the neck, probes veins

Gashes gush, Old Faithful
I’ve learnt the art of deception
Subtleties the placidity 
That seeps through what quivers
Like a rising flame
