Old wall, on the wall

I watch the spiders build their trap

Waiting to catch and eat any scrap

My eyes move from floor to tall

Emotionless is my bed

The one I lay on when the heart...

Wondering mind from the start

All I can think of is a wall red

Stained with handprints

like footprints on the cupboards

scorpion writing his name on the black rods

A black name without colour is the scints

... knife

in the heart, a hollow thumb

lifeless pauses, trauming loom

strive...

I'm lost looking at...

old wall, on the curtains

a deja-vu with flawless patterns

found in tartars, tears of art
