For F.i.in.e Moods. So much for liberation.


Darkness Returns

The glimmer at the end, the breath of air,
The sudden flare of flame, is gone. The fire's
Petered out, and I, splayed on a love seat
Opposite the lightless fireplace, acknowledge
All is dark again, and that, under the circumstances,
There's not any reason why I should preserve
My life.
