In spectral finery,
Or rubbed out?
Sparrows silenced;
A still spider in its
Dew-jewelled cobweb;
Watery headlights like
Glowing eyes,
Cast down on
Wet tarmac trails.
A chance to
Slip away unseen,
To hide in the
Damp folds of
Robes that cover
Concrete scars and
Iron blemishes:
The marks we make
Upon the world.
