A vaguely lit lampshade Pictures the streets Where tiny crickets and fireflies Awaken from their slumber As many a number cannot tell The livelihood of the suburbs Where owls fly and wolves howl In a sea of light emitting from the lockets And at dawn the bumblebee flutters In an elongated mantra The day awakens, the night rests And the puppets emerge from their cases The city where hearts beat and break Where the puppets dance to the clocktower in the west But tonight I forgot my key And remained at peace in my locket

The guardian's locket
A vaguely lit lampshade Pictures the streets Where tiny crickets and fireflies Awaken from their slumber As many a number cannot tell The livelihood of the suburbs Where owls fly and wolves howl In a sea of light emitting from the lockets And at dawn the bumblebee flutters In an elongated mantra The day awakens, the night rests And the puppets emerge from their cases The city where hearts beat and break Where the puppets dance to the clocktower in the west But tonight I forgot my key And remained at peace in my locket
