On Christmas Eve




    The fireplace glows, metallic papered

I am loud
I am calm
I am nothing
I am everything
I am underground
Loud metallic grunge

I am created
I am sound...

I hate the taste of lead,

but maybe today, It's my food for thought....

sentences dipped in silver 
diamond dialogue 
metaphor metallic magic
crystal chime of ruby rhyme 
emerald expressions
all combine for forever jewelry time
