No omen,
no warning, slow
beat the hands
in sleep, such instinct
needs no light
or waking, shaking
the heavy changes
of the heart
in breaststrokes
across the heavens,
no omen,
no warning
could slow the soul
for the heart's
darkest sorcery,
slow beat
turns the hands
in sleep, to keep
to the deep shade,
immersed in the thirst
of the unruly night,
where the soul
truly longs to be,
not the light.

Well done!!
