edge of time where the nothingness is but an infant
whets her tongue upon cosmic fires invoking the red
chaos at the pier crows rattle almost barren trees
in their element waters rock solid and the flow of stone
our echoes digging deeper into the stone quarry
puts on a mask of shadows eastern face of the cliff
winter the dark rite of dancing trees in the night
the cold forest divided by the sound of the stream
every step of the way in the shadow of the winter moon
