the moon has gone dark.
mourning the loss of heroes.
the sun shines dimmer.
teary skies
heavy are the skies.
gray with oppressive sad thoughts.
waiting to shed tears.
snake eyes
god on the corner
shouting loud on his soap box.
words upon soiled tongue.
red edge
at the crust of night
the moon sharp as a razor.
dreams red and bloody.
free man
the union’s best man
was a woman with courage.
fighting for freedom.
bloody sky
the slant of white snow.
pins of ice cutting the sky.
bleeding wet and clear.
