  • NOBLE POETRY  

  • Grey

    My mind

    My eyes

    Hold the weight

    of a grey winter sky

     

    That orb

    Between my chest

    Sunken in the middle

    Of my cage of bones

    Is hot

    And shining dimly

    Of a pleasant

    Silver

    Being tugged

    With an untidy 

    Frayed rope

    Gripping that core

    Entangled around it

    Like enchanted vines

    It tuggs that orb 

    Strictly but guiding

    No, dragging.

    Like a weight.

    I am heavy

    Like an anchor 

    Being pulled 

    from the depths

    To a ship 

    Out of view

     

    My eyes

    Windows

    Fogged with 

    Condensation

    And the sound

    Of a gentle rain

    Rhythmically falling

    From that 

    Grey winter sky
