Parasole Secrets

The clouds cover casaulties

the heart ceased to accept,

as the lark sings it's distant drill

of unknown sadness.

The rivers embankments break

the bond that claimed catastrophies;

the dark and stormy skies,

drill modest attrocities.

The masquarade carries on,

whilst frowning faces flourish

and dainty fingers fumble frantically,

for a place to call home.
