A spin on my poem called "Unfulfilled"


Discontent


A fog ascends higher
under numerous, scabrous statues.
Swelling and undulating,
the zephyr covers,
acquiescently.

Under flagrant swells
which drown the winter silence
denial strides unerringly--
a minute star,
subdued.

By way of abandonment
tender wounds heal, willingly.
Aerial, these variances occur
nightly. Saturnine,
meaning cut clean by voracity.

These diminutive things
call me again, as I covet them
yet I cannot grasp their glittering allure.
Break me in two.
I have no meaning anymore.

I ache for these
unsated casualties,
yet to occur;
they will never endure.
I am not free to pursue their horrors.

Yet constant still
you are,
you are...
and my desire is shattered
by this treacherous weather.
