Such an empty sky Countless pensive glances are Over and over Swallowed swift, before their time If only I could keep them

Tiny flashing lights Figures entwine together Closer and closer ‘closer than ever’ they say Beside our computer screens

The spotlight glares down Bright, bright, sight, sight My cloak swiftly surrounds White, White, Swish, Swish, The fabric shell billows but stays

Flickering between The realms of light and shadow Why not close the shades? Sleep’s alluring charm welcomes Despite such early hours!

Just for a moment To glimpse from dusty pages A single white flash Tenuous seconds follow Until a roaring reply

Seasonal ill’n Ado, ado, soft achoos Cool wind seeps through me

Sweet little black box From metalic elogy Sleep now, sing no more

Foggy morning sky Your veil remains untouched by The flags of Autumn How cruel of you to kidnap Such keen keepsakes of your kin

Ask me who he is A tall tree and branches keen words drop; leaves shaken I try to collect them all But forget them by the stream

I guess it’s about that time again time for another pointless relapse Time, like a dusty album record Spinning, around and around on end I want the needle to break or veer…

Such sweet aroma Breathe in the color deeply Exhale precious wafts Crisp Citric spiral peelings, Fill my compost disposal

Archaic toiling Through endless character streams To drown deeper still Beneath black and white waters Until I breathe symbolly

Distractions of youth Parade like bright spring flowers Always on the mind Entangling my weak heart To the land of mud and ice

No words escape me The sun will rise tomorrow Or so I am told
