the relentless day Turn off,just once
this dread relentless day.
Close down my eyes
and shade this molten mind
from the black and heavy grey
of those skies of dull indifference
to our human toil
our hopes and fears
and flowering life that fades
of all it's colour
down
to the last decay
when all the words that ever were,
writ and read,
spin endlessly in ether,
hang pointlessly at corners
like homeless waifs who wait
to be discovered
found,fed and read
and then discarded
to float quietly into nothing
in this dark,relentless day.....dave hobbs |
