No need to jump the queue

Thinning hairs lost youth
times grey, sent to displease
clouded insights focus blighted
a stature so reduced

The echo's of the graveyard
half forgotten past
shadows cast so uninvited
the last Swallow that dives

Walk a black horizon
no need to jump the queue
the ledger exclamation just a hyphen
 phoenix spirit just candle lit
