Words flung smash past
crash in to the walls
sink in to the ocean
Papering and lining weak walled houses
with filth and distraction
Let them fly.
Let them prey.
Only vessels of progress
Shatter worried windows
of shaken faith
Melting glass of the cold night
To structure coming years.
Strength of October
Carries through the bitter Winter
Shivering eyes unblinking
For what thawing reveals.
- me, just then.
