               The boy’s voice echoes through languid spaces

               In darkness’ beyond reflections

               The world passes though matter fields

               Unquestioned, dark figures, skulking about

               While doorways shake the stars from blue eyes

               A Crow chortles out a grinding dirge

               A fingertip taps into my subconscious

               The night-black tree burns upon the ridge

 

               Tongues licking the ends of dreams
