James Peranteau Poet Romanticism

The Stillness Fractures

.

      In the stillness of the night
               the black night
     the night where stars flicker
           with bright radiance
when the only is ourn hot breathes
               clearly visible
                 in the cold 
                crispy night

        The stillness fractures
            with these words

    "my love for you will never
                  splinter
             like the winter 
           at Springs wake"
