cold bodies passing through veil of light
after dark the concrete offers no solace
beauty requires no effort just be
our monologues are designed to be prayers
i like to think of this world as a mad mad place
hint of warmth we unravel night limbs
last of winter winds seeking peace
now more than ever our prayers
shield the last ember with bodies from storm
