A pitch black blanket of unwound strands Lays splayed before broken words in impotent rage Breathing ragged against a winter window Mirrors outlined in dark silk mock all they reflect And tell no truths in their unwashed humor But smile like cats eyes at the moon A four chambered cavern sits sealed in frozen stone With faded cave paintings raving in the dark Hinting at old fires that burned Simmering thinly and frail beneath a calm front A snap on the edge of the cusp is only a Sudden strike away and expecting the spark So the frail crescent scratched in sand fails its promise And gives away all it said it stood for In the name of some sad joke
