The night wind screeched

with an eerie whine

as blackbirds perched on

the telephone line

and the shadows all

came out to play

in shades of light to

the darkest grey.

 

The sky flared bright

flashing multi-tones

gave background to

the earthling's moans

and the 'self' was dawn

from it's sanctuary

as the shell cracked wide

for the world to see...

 

the melting pot has taken toll

and the pained puree

drained down the hole.
