Sing of Nothing
Jagged crashes drag me back
to breathing aloud,
the escape too brief
to heal me.
A bundle of blades, cruel
icicles cling;
my predictions
live inside.
The slats seep flashes
I’d rather miss.
Deep drifts wither,
drained to land.
Blind winds, slick
with uneasiness,
sing of nothing.

welcome
back.
it's a dark place
indeed
the expression lands the reader in
-sing of nothing.

Thank you CF.
Pleased this caught your eye. I may wander these halls a little, see where words take me.

Bloody hell. Tank girl!!!
I thought my page had glitched when you came up in my poems list... welcome back, lady.
This poem is riddled with dark imagery. I like the fact that we usually use the term “sing of joy” but the addition of “nothing” here really adds a dark twist to the whole piece. Seems as though this poem felt nothing. Is made of nothing. Is born of nothing.
So, so sad.

Missy, you lovely thing, thanks for the nod.
Consider me another temperamental artist with a temporal disposition. No idea when or why.
Sing - trust you to note that. Sharp as always.
