poem :>

Awoke from slumber

the dream could not survive

The valley of sunsettias greeted me

As the hour ticks five


Mirthy liquid laced with poison

washed this body clean

Earthy water flooded the crevices

Of ruins beyond fading gleam


I am a wanderer, no doubt

As mistrals grew harsh and icy

Potpourri of death spilled about

I wonder, will you ever find me?


Shards of dusk lightened the fading foundry

Warmth appears to be lost

Sooner or later the cold will consume me

Hush, can you sense the permafrost?


When I start to feel a little drowsy

The clock will perform its final show

I hope that when it reaches the seventh hour

You wouldn't witness the killing blow
