Friction of the Fraught

Dance in dark

Delight in days

Revel in reality slipping slowly to the gray.

Inky black comfort dripping into haze.

 

Distraught in denile

Damaged in disdain

Rememberd reason trembeling in shadows to the grave.

Nervous the edge of sanity sinking slowly below the brave.

 

Cringe in quiet

Crumble in cacophony

Bask in benign indifference to the coming of the fray.

Shape the broken mold into which is squezed the clay.

 

Form in function

Friction in fruition

Extrapolate from nothing what is real of what is fake.

Drive doom through the heart wooden to the stake.

 

Damaged and distroyed, disturbed and distrought, this is the friction of the fraught.
