A sheen upon the brow,
Undertones of green
And grey
And blue
Lips, a crescent moon
Tears,
Melancholy's late night
Moody tune of
Rattling; Coughing
A prayer
Or two.
Time, a fumbled mess
Followed by...
What day is it?
Tinted lids of pink
An ocean of white waves
A mask to mask
The cordless puppet's face
Waxing, Waning
Lips of wax
Overlined
Unwelcomed
An earthly hole
Heavy box
Far too light
Floral purple covers
In a tomb of jewels
An abandoned Temple,
Hidden in a sea
Of junk.
Useless mementos.
Dirt on wood
Carvings in a rock,
Late to arrive.
A prayer--
Or Two!
Lace of Navy blue
Just for you.
Only,
No more you
