Still Light 02:45
Do you feel the coldness? Do you watch the shadows? Dim and darkening the corners encroach Should we lift the anchors, watch the shoreline getting smaller? Leave memory unblemished behind Still Light, we didn't plan for this attack How much do you think you can carry on your back? Still Light, off in the distance gather clouds These chains might mean that we both have to drown

Inter Vivos 03:29
Somnambulant for thirty years A ghostly presence we leaned in close to hear Swinging fists at shadowy foes Our earthly bodies absorbing the blows You're made of fire You're made of blinding light You're made of blistering life You consume with your fire A photograph of a concrete dam Image of an imaginary man Water pushing at the cracks A force too great to hold the torrents back Are you a source of guidance, or are you a cautionary tale? Do you know your own violence? Are you a cautionary tale?
3.
Stared out on a cerise horizon from the safety of the past Comforted by a blissful blindness to the squalls that lay ahead You have the space, from a distance, contemplate: Is kindness enough to sustain? I lean heavily Encumbered by a weight held in suspense Bound to bear everything Held by an oath sworn in a life long past Do you feel brave as you stare down the steely barrel of a gun?
