perpendicular
a last pink holds on
the day crashes out
perpendicular
a last pink holds on
the day crashes out
absorbing colors
a day fades into the night
time's relentlessness
with toasted crumpets
the word becomes your oyster
fetch me some butter
shout out with honor
we are stronger together
against the darkness
to pause and listen
as the keys begin to dance
breathe in the music
a beat of the wing
fortuitus uprising
beckoning blue sky
among the carved stone
at peace with the dead's remains
a giggle drifts by
voices lift as one
hold time with a measured beat
feel the resonance
to push forward blue
through the fear instilled darkness
crack the night open
forced realizations
cold mistress of adulthood
no shouted the child
