bring down the lights of the shuttering storm!
capture the flaring shots of wind!
stoke the emberless fire!
you have gone from this place…
fill the pot with laughter
erase the windowed fog
for strange are the creatures
that we have become…
gaze now at the formless void
rip out the lonely heart!
stranger now have we become
together, in this warm embrace…
you are the star-lit fire
the boning damp has gone
caught up, in the eye-found sparkle
and the melting heart of stone…
