risky work, life
and some things stay secret
even when told

and there/'/s over a hundred ways
to unpack silence
hidden under the pillow

a small moon
changing
the push and pull

with the darkness
as a curtain and
the walls are bones

and taking my soul-print
with it, a quiet delete
a mute scream

where time creeped
and turned
things hollow. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 228 [topic] => 73 [informant] => ming [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => abstract ) Your Poetry Dot Com - the holy fool

smiled like winter
with a low-slung halo
and well bruised by the world

risky work, life
and some things stay secret
even when told

and there/'/s over a hundred ways
to unpack silence
hidden under the pillow

a small moon
changing
the push and pull

with the darkness
as a curtain and
the walls are bones

and taking my soul-print
with it, a quiet delete
a mute scream

where time creeped
and turned
things hollow.
