Poem by Peg Simone First Published in MungBeing Magazine, Issue 36: Wildlife

lyrics

Winter wears its heavy, velvet cloak of darkness
With a harsh and unforgiving smirk
It’s sharp metallic, chiseled teeth
Bare a tormenting, cruel smile
Darkness, grows unbridled in the Winter
Darkness, has no limits to where it can plunge the human spirit
Darkness, thrives through slow moving months
Gnawing at shards & glimpses of optimism
Darkness, shadows the sun and blankets its warm kiss
Darkness, needles the mind
Pokes numerous, tiny holes in the brittle frailty of a consciousness scraping for fire
Attempting to break through the solemnity
So futile and destructive the self medicated attempts
Of one waiting for the sun
