blood and bone

  
we are blood,
we are bone.  
we are many,  
we are alone.    
   
we are tossed,  
about,  
a ship of,war   
battered.  
we are kings/  
queens in    
fine silk.  
we are an old    
red cloak  
tattered.  
   
we are    
nightmares,  
we are dreams.  
we are hushed  
sweet whispers,  
we are angry,  
black screams.  
   
we are dogs locked    
in an eternal cage,    
blood and bone,  
crushed by the  
stones of  
age  

generation's come,
generations go
leaving behind
no footprints
in the ever
falling
snow

just blood
and bone

all alone

just blood
and bone

all
alone
