Still I could feel you
not wanting your soul to leave
it left with a gasp

it left with a gasp;
the gentle creak of my bones,
a resounding wake.
In a shadow there is the blessing of a shadow.

a resounding wake:
cacophony of voices,
"she left far too soon."
I was born to speak all mirth and no matter.

She left far too soon,
Spring laments Winter's exit
as the ground thaws new.
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

as the ground thaws new
hold this biting silence tight
it bores deep and nests

It bores deep and nests
Sticks criss-crossed like an embrace
Eggs and shiny and new

straps tear - now dances,
controlling hands now inert.
the puppet: he lives.

The puppet, he lives
arms-lurch-knees-fold-spin-falling
just to maintain strings.

Just to maintain strings
twisting, plucking and strumming
to find the right tune

I didn't press submit fast enough XD
The puppet: he lives
eyes blinking, people screaming
tears rolling down face

to find the right tomb
twisting crawling upwards vine
tendrils ensnare me

tendrils ensare me
pulling me deep underneath
fighting for a breath

fighting for a breath
the land cracks under the sun
the windvanes stand still

the wind vanes stand still,
march destruction around them.
like lion, like lamb.
I was born to speak all mirth and no matter.
