Forty Seven


Day Forty Seven:  A Hard Place

Beams in smooth shades of particular
glass doors, intentional shatter
Around fences trunked with amber holds,
Through Clausta-formations in the shivering depths.
Stuck in all sense of the word, immobile death.
And so just, and so smart,
And so persuasive in the dark.

In to what honour, to which, in which it boldly shows
That not only is there something creeping but something more
Mold, frantically peeking
So that in every hourly check
The dank space epitomizes shallow breathing,
Loss inducing shortness of it all,
Something like panic, but gripping.

If we all came from a shining light
How come it dissolves before our eyes?
