A Catatonic Coda

Sudden eclipses blare 
Thoughtlessness…thrombosis… 

The only room opens and snakes drip
From broken windows as leaves hiss
Ghosts try to form bodies…turning…

Into the silent agony of madness shuffling
Into the wordless expression of immensity
Into the vivid darkness of coma black…
