Patience Susan, Lemme Finish

Yes,but lemme finish Susan Holy sermons,discourse,invocations- Priest, like one possessed, Less holy whispering. It was a pleasure trip Church at hill-top Spreading death knell How come you fail to hear it? Ancestors lay beneath earth Waiting our arrival Your colour sense Matching arrogant taste Like amorphous mind. Chariot of Time fled Pretended with self deceit, We loved each other. Susan, you're right Lone days and nights Logical arguments Crawling anguish Unanswered puzzles An eerie frequency, Structure of Time strangled. Invocations from distant planes Your defiance Not to anoint dirt on them. We have crossed half our life. Choked off springs Gnawing wounds Burning embers in my chest We passed the setting sun Time running short. I am in a transition between Life and death,leaving, Fragrances kept close to heart We part for good Me knuckling under- Yes,Susan Leave me at the railway gate Resume your journey A few minutes walk Rail roads will take me to Noman's land.See, we lived a life Of rail roads.
