I
Awakened at night to the night sky
to the stars and bars that bound them
like holy prisoners;
chosen in place,
yet wrought
by their injustices

wrought rotten like a wrought iron fence rusted vintage
and you
you just keep peering back for more
"it looks almost victorian, like a renaissance man"

but can you feel the heat of forgotten lovers?
can you feel the heat of a love infected by hate?
infected by fear?

it is cold like iron
cold
like your glance
it is cold like a world that forgives it's killers
yet forgets it's friends
cold
like t he person who treats kindness as a weakness
just to find
they are alone...

alone. . .


alone . . .



and why?
why would they not rather choose to die when they bring nothing but death?
nothing but death...
and death...

death...
