At The Bottom of Solemn Movement
Quell
this uneasiness that disturbs
This warped sense of lunacy
Rising as stars fall
their sockets hang
with the muted cries
of monomania
Fear
fails to penetrate consciousness
Like a deciduous tree splintered
leaf and limb rolled
into a bundled fag,
stuffed into the corner
No longer able to shout,
anything to anyone.
Wait
be still, for the iridescent
wingtips of obscurity to
bring awareness like sunshine
melted, into imagery that
quenches my parched mind
Collect
me at the bottom, preserve
me from destruction in a jar
so I may breathe of happiness
at the boundary of solemn
movement.
