Into the Night

INTO THE NIGHT
an undertow
  to hide
  & ebb away or conceal
enclosed
  stands absolute
 in the light of day
has
taken its toll
so cannot sustain
  &so shall go
its quest to share

 to defend
  with consuming fire
&
let unfold
who will subscribe
  & console
a virtue lost
on
the way

  nay
all
must share

THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by the enigma so derived
