skylark song

calling out to the wall it does not know

fooled by the glass echoes

it cannot escape

the lizard lay

motionless

not dead,

just content

like a doll

ragged, aching

the waves, with their

impregnable rhythm

you can expect

you lay numb

hypotherminc, dying

the fire, it dances

taunting, flickering, in and out

soothe, ebb the icy grasp of the violent, pulsing

piercing burning

that is your fear and your doubt and denial

you are drowning

swim, I know you can

you don't realize

it will kill you

it already has

but your voice is lost

not even 

the bubbles
