A tickle in the inner ear.
A slightly scratchy throat.
An ever-ready stench of fear
Has dug a deeper moat.
A smile gone, day covers tracks,
Hardness waxes strong.
What happened now was yesterday,
The present presses on.
Light
Dark
Death
Life
Curtains slowly whistling
An unfamiliar tune
Shift momentum elsewhere.
The wait is never soon.
The stairs are telling stories.
The furnace too can speak.
Don't underestimate them,
Your secrets they will leak.
Justice slow to action
Has finally broken through.
The silence never uttered
Points quietly to you.
Fleeing from a scary mind
Is your task from ever on,
The clouded person behind your eyes
Cannot imagine dawn
Your agony if any
Is invisible to us.
Life is there for all to grasp,
Emptiness you clutch.
A glimmer in the darkest night
Are these that scrape the truth
From underneath a rock of lies,
Mockery refute.
