    Rudy eye,your crescent beak affixed,deviations of despair keepyour confidence forested,the world-shard,withering, falls away,sea grass,grasping at your fingertipsturns its face, our lamplight,swallowed,becomes a beacon,manifestations of thingslost and discardedspringing into to being,slip,through clasped hands,beyond supplication,away from you

    Cottonwood,shedding, lays down tomorrow,in ribbons, drawn out,an abstraction of circumstancecarpets the field your rage,unconstrained, spills over,your rage, turned inwardsstains the flowers red memory,a refuge, Cottonwoodpacked down,into a pillowcase,between the branches,smelling sweetlyof betterdays

    Exile,threshed out,sorrow visits us again bycandlelight world-worn,a quarter-life, expended,folds silently upon itself,your life, unfolding,runs in charcoal linesbeneath your eyesclose to me you,world-blind,wrung out my heartbetween your fingertips,my heart, expended,finds itself again,in the dust,by the roadside

    Rage-feathertrembling,your parts, unconstrained,cry out, plague-doctor,in the brume,by lantern light,split, count us among thedrowned, Kraken-soul,wasted, risen in the twilight,drag down beneath your waves,those who gorgedthemselves thoughtlesslyupon ourtragedy

    Raven-eyed,billowing, our fortunesprung up from the deep desire, cloud-swept,found itself again,your heart set free,among the mountains, in the meadows,falling down,raindrops, a diamondupon your cheek

    Mirebrook,petrified, our legacyrunning dry drove us to the sea Immortality, absconded,sunk beneath the waves,your heart, embittered,no longer cares to justify thatwhich you take from other to satisfythat which youbelieve is owed to you child, you alone,remaining,comb the ashes,one day, in time,you too will find yourselfswept out,tempestuous,your inheritance,a callused heart, brining,carved from stone

    Severance, gilded, a silver string, your anchor to the city of trees, her life, hollowed out and lost to the wasting sickness moves you once more to exile, the riverside, desiccated, becomes a footprint, her memory, clutched tightly in the moonlight to your chest, packed down with grief, unblinking, a patchwork requiem for better days
