Cold.
I am livid
with the Sun
and with the sky
and the perpetual madness
that aligns when
the two collide.
A catalyst of colour
blinds my eyes;
morning
from my south facing window.
You
and your presumptuous
manner quickly assume
my mood
is hindered
by you.
You are a cock,
I don't cluck.
Early rising
doesn't suit me.
So leave me
the ground
where the worms,
where the moles,
where the lice linger,
hide and survive.
We mingle without
bright
interference.
Your muddy eyes
pin mine
down
and force them
upwards
with words that
stir in air
and noise like
morning dew
and light that burns;
dusted blue.
You fool,
for stepping
into the dark
waters.
