Fishpond.


Compelled by austere tragedies
the meat of burnt dreams lay frozen
in a family barbecue of summer evening
a feast for the worms,
sucking the thick red blood that ooze;
almost oozes from the aneroxic stillness.
Cascaded with ghosts of dead rocks
and fishpond surfaces,they loiter aimless
the spirits of sullen dreams.
Nothing but the tick toc of a rusty clock
measured and slow.
Contemptuous of the carnival
understands the vacant eyes of the boy in shadows
prodigious silence,listening to
the grinding of the stars.crumbling to dust
a star-dust which sprinkles the misty lake
relics of some ancient God's dream
that died a fitting death.
