as time conspires

 



high on the brink

 

with no turning back

 

as the tidal waters instil

 

the shudder of winters

 

short cold breath



 

haunted and hurting

 

feeling all of those stiff-joints

 

until the moon begins

 

to appear

 

in this

 

deviant universe



 

listen, to your anguish

 

as memory is swallowed

 

by the darkness within your tongue

 

each syllable muted

 

drained of all images

 

as time conspires to devour you


 

 

hush, in silence

 

in that moment of flimsy truth

 

here stripped of clothes

 

naked to the world

 

how were you able to come here

 

to this point of no return



 

unlearn the instruction

 

that the teachers taught

 

in as much as history will forget your name

 

as tears fall from your extinct eyes

 

here the agenda breeds the end

 

as pealing bells toll the hour of death

Your work is beautiful.
