Parameters from Building Sound

Parameters

Tonight

you brought the ghosts

with you again.

Their whispers

carried by the wind,

or maybe just a lullaby.

The music plays

upon the windowpane

it sounds like death.


I am alone.


Outside in winter chill

the night looks in.

And gathered in my room

with embers burning low,

the clock

is ticking time away

like falling

snow.

Shipwrecks

below the ice

in winter

down in the cold gray storm

are the whitefish

alone


in darkness they list

shift weight by the bone

the captains on long ships

row star board 

home
