Hands, stiff
Eyes, shunned
Lost in a convoluted rift,
Frozen barrel of a gun
-
Mirrors speak
Fate be gone,
My faith is weak
Coming undone
-
Embezzled moonlight
Sunny haze,
Encompassed by the twilight,
Hallucinating disgrace
-
Gorged with a savvy,
Fantasy yields
Hope, come to me
Bring me to a verdant field
-
A musing quashed,
A longing that breathes
My lips are hushed,
Sorrow bequeaths
-
In the morning, renewed
In the night, astray
The angst imbues
the night – with the air of a deadly viper frayed
-
The moon assuages
This empty vessel’s starvation
Still, a dagger advances
Rummaging with dead set precision
