waking from the subterfuge of winter’s grip
a gentle scratch on the surface to reveal the soma within
read me and fall into this ocean of dark currents
try and assimilate warped facets of the frail mind
collaborate with shadows to fight this rain
winter before dawn i allow this shell to grey
over icy fields of grey the dance of somatic orb lights
the sharpened mind but the flesh has yet to bleed
winter dawn the undefined stillness of mind
