consider the design of human frailness
too quiet and still the night for sleep
after dark we embody the being of destroyers
the melancholic song of a strange bird
high noon tree lizards scatter at footsteps
dusk the lightning illuminates brain in jar
deep space depot souls passing through
spring at dawn the soul is loved
the kind of tranquility you will not regret
