Coarse Sky

The silhouette of broken branches

brushes the slowly dying sky


as every last ember – of the morning

light, falls to the distant horizon


bathing the land, in a gloomy

shadow – forever lingering.


The light touch of cashmere clouds

heal the coarse sky, and bathe it's wounds


for a shallow tomorrow;

wounds shall be reopened


and yet again shall these bloodied

embers bleed through...


The sun will crack open -

and release it's might grip -


showering the ignorant earth below,

with molten lava...


But yet – the burned and charred

ancient trees still stand;


their thick trunks rough with age -

and bare, from the destruction

brought on... by no other.
