The Outer View

Beneath a mountain of tedium,

In a dull, ugly system,

In an empty ocean of shadows,

Is a silhouette of pure fire heat

Drifting in the dark.

All I wanted was the wind;

The wind murmured with anticipation,

The grass turned to icy grey,

A fine mist fell,

And with the mist came my sorrow

Cooling my body

With her thousand kisses,

Leaving me there.

I am surrounded by ice crystals

Floating down through silence

Into soft glowing snow;

The only sound is the pulse of my breathing.

As the sun sleeps,

How many hearts are dreaming,

When the world stands still.
