Unsucceeding

After the 
elective execution, 
you reach at the 
end of nowhere.

A wayward 
cloud stands alone 
under the plump moon.

It is absolutely? 
white, like the 
wings of a swan.

Beneath the earth 
you want to dig out 
the remains of dark hoods.

Gale-force winds 
promise to make you 
snow-blind.
