on behalf of us machines plan and dream of paradise: a place void of flesh
celebration and cheers buried beneath layers and layers of pale winter winds
the rain relentless in its assault upon the frail mechanisms of flesh
the pale wolf that bites you with every chill draft across your tender skin
your laughter as contagious as the grey on this winter day
your gaze on this moonless night wakes the endless in me
lethargy in the limbs that span a millenia
waist deep in fractured waters void of life
cruising through the madness of this winter day
