Sullen Dawn Solitary Procession

Walking alone
Defiant shadow, songbird
Morning
Crows wing across
Cigarette ember sky
Waiting
Quiet treetop murder
Greets the sun

Golden boy, he hesitates
Lingers sombre cautious grays
Vagabond wind sailing
Restless
Cool willow corridors
Stretch towards sleep
Here There be Monsters
Worlds end with waking

King walk strewn
Red and Gold
Careless offerings of summers spent
Faceless stones remember
Though the flesh forgets
Mother storm
I do not wish to enter
Your house today

Streets bitter bloom
Hateful hurry dreamers
Need not apply
Within cognitive disonance
Always one missing peace
Fold my hands and weep
If I could only remember
How to forget
