Cradle

Havoc of the heavy-hearted

Which from their grief are never parted

Gloom by sunshine never thwarted

Stultified, folding down on knees

 

Excess of nothing, excess of nothing!

 

And the absence of all.

 

From canyons do we creep,

Endlessly creep,

With blisters on our feet

From abysses twice so deep.

 

Love is not matter.

But matter is does.

 

These ragdoll knees render my collapse;

Caught midway 'tween a twinkling synapse.
