Epiphany

The tyrannic moan of the refuse truck;
the granite of the rook`s caw,

the windows suffer under sleet,

The street is lighted yellow
for the survivors, the last ones.

Your breath is soft beside me,
each pause fills the darkness.

Dream I am better than I am,
the night`s follower, the undecided.
