The moon pushed the sun down the spiral-staircase of timeBright neck broken, twisted beyond repairSo now there’s only darkness standing thereArms outstretched/predatory parasiteVacant lightFrom the tunnel of night.It’s colder here since the war, all colours took on a shade of greyThe streams have run slower since you went awayEven the summer is slouching nowSun not waxing, but waning – walking disappointedly awayMoon with no hope of saving the day-It’s time I remembered that I have forgotten-Rainy season beyond sense and reasonEndless sheets of glassStreets awash with horrorBullets in the back of summerFilthy water everywhereNot saved by incantationsSummer sun always goneLeft my smile all alone back thereForced to simply sit and stareAt nothingNothingSummer’s always goneTemperance overruleTemper under ruledTime – Oh, she’s shortWait – Oh, she’s longWhere she went I’ll never knowAll I knowIs she’s goneGone?
