Fragment

Fragment

In, that petal drooping dream,
I take the reluctant morning for a walk
Its head propped up on a speeding reel
Of flickering moments
Tasting of stale salted sweat it
Drips into and darkens
A sunless compressed thin day
The growling,dog eared pages display
A fang torn night,
 it swallows stray secrets, and
Colours another day.
Early o clock !

Really enjoyed this posting. There is a compelling errieness to your morning walk. "A fang torn night" - remarkable wording. Congratulations! Brian
