Dust as settled thick as it is bitter,
Left unchanged, unbroken for those many years,
Moaning, weeping, dare not moving litter,
Dwelling on the past, sitting, as it leers,
Dark, deep and dank as in depression’s claws,
And the tears now as dry, as dusty,
As they fell an age before, against flaws,
The air thick, suffocating and musty,
Whispery wind thus gently soothing breeze,
Cascading dust falling, freely as fire,
And dust has now fallen trough breeze, trough trees
Trough brambles, trough hedges and trough brier,
The dust dispersed before was chance to mull,
Urn so empty only left my heart full.

If your afraid of the dark, then why did you come?
