still dark red light wisp pulses with urgency
Tag: poem
tunnel vision the red light drifts further
gin in the bloodstream body on fire
watching the shadow vines sway
cloud spots littered across the mad dawn sky
a flowering tree rises to greet the heavens
the land barren and us humans without regret
all we’ve ever seen a blind gods’s illusion
night winds we restrain flesh to concrete
noon tide ripples beneath tender skin
