With a rusty fence,

Tick………,
The wallpaper is crumbling an...

milking stone veins

...Cold, so cold, as everything seems to enshroud me 
encasing light, the flame of life - darkness within.
Slivers of blue, ice my lips, like a frozen lake.
Am I in a nightmare - is this where realms...

Flick Prophetic Finger

...FLICK PROPHETIC FINGER 

Knocking hard on a massive ancient gate,
Step out of a gaunt, granite building,
Leave behind its austere contents,

...The meal deal, the power crush.
The entitled airs they seek so much.

Swallow dignity, swallow pride.
The panelled walls of entitlement house their hides.

What of humility, what of honour is l...

Mattress padding pink carpet creeps corners 
Bannisters ornate in century's old discussions
Omit disclosure of grim history above

...We moved house today
This house lacks warmth and heart
Everything in disarray
We don't know where to start

Cry Me a River

...I am not the giver, 
am not a diva.
Can't get you high,

Reflect the firelight burning light, warming coals
Black windowpanes bar the cold and wind to a blacker outside.
Pictures in the flames rise...

The waves her steed surmounts.
Her hair is flying here and there;
