Stone Art poker face sit to the window tonight clouded breath on separation glass wick lit in yellow liquefy slow drip pale the only warmth I see in disk dark outside in sleepy wind chilled naked desperate trees shiver empty rebound leaves turn spiral still tour silently aching in that lost connection winter has the boldness of stone art slowly breaking down the thick to thin in occupied greenless desolate desert selfish season please reverse this spell transform twisting change of direction unwind this crimson curse in grey despair "no darkness has ever been deep enough to extinguish my personal knowledge of love" Anne Rice |
