A triple warning
To avoid whatever
The shadow drags in
Creeping into gaps
Noiseless
Slashing all in its path
A widow still
After all these years,
Perched on a window sill
The friend I seek
Is the one indeed,
In a casket of deeds
Shall I live again
For the one to gain
In an instant dream?
If I live again
For the one to gain,
What will remain?
Burnt by will
Evacuated within,
A wink from a crow
