Decayed places

Faces, lost in the turning cog

Distant polarity

Swinging on the pendulum

Twisting in the wind

Groaning

Burning with friction-fire

Blue and purple flame

Bright star in the dark

Dying

I live in shadows

Doubt precludes want

In the mire of memory

Straining with the constant–

Never-ceasing regret

Of error

Of lives shattered and gone

Can’t forget

Forget

Forget

My eyes are streaming

Windows breaking

Lenses bending the light

Into violet nothings

Forever
