cradle of dark this body an infant
dusk sky transforms a mind of its own
bus ride the silence and sideway glances
not a single word the virus bares its fangs
a raised leaf offers dew for the soul
deep blue the dreamscape
after dawn curious sparrow checks in on me
dusk the cries of mourners fade in and out
after the rain a scene of fires and hell pits
