Shutter sky

26 June 2011

A word like a hiss to utter

A wing like a bird to flutter

Across the skies and hills so high

A world that lies like sob and sigh

◊

A mumble like rant to mutter

An eyelid like a quaint shutter

To shut out the glare of the sky

For hearts do sink while all hopes fly

◊

Acid of memory cutter

Through thoughts that lie still in clutter

As my heart races through the why

Of a world that thrives on a lie
