The h2g2 Poem

Truck #37

Forgotten paper pictures

caught against a

hot spring melt.


The blackness of shadow

not near enough,

close enough to pain.


Disappearing consequences

have yet to cleanse

disembodied voices yet to fade.


Burnt in the eyes

gone in ash and wind

a whirlwind of embers.


To be left to some

and not right to others

less to even fewer.


A likening to

tunnels of white

and gossamer wings.


Sweated worlds

and curious murmurs,

tangling in time.


Past stones falling,

hardened rain washing down

charcoaled memories.
