fireworks flaming up the restive night
shutter windows guttering flames light
shudder aged whispers of fluttering wings
mutter secrets glistening on the printed page
beyond calm glowing shining in flight
be gone angry aspect and elemental glare
turn the shadow streaking now no longer there
bum-rush of the shadow glaring at my shoulder
once standing over sleeping women wept
glancing fast yet gleaning
as though tied to the mast
screaming into the storm then shipwrecked
fairy queen blessed the isle of crystalline wreaths
finding quartz needles shoved between teeth
brought back refracted splashing
light upon the wall
off to dreams then
no consequence at all
