fatigue

poetry

every time you gotta fight
to keep the cold from sinking in

the shiver lies dormant in your spine
you don’t wanna let it out

this time, you were doing so well
save one gust in a blustery storm

and now that it’s snowing
the shiver wont wait to get you

you let it out, you damn fool
and now it shakes you wherever you go

try and sleep it off, make it go away
spend time under artifical suns

how many times has it been now?
and with each time it takes longer

longer to sleep off
longer to get warm

So-called traitor

poetry

Each if their daggers is kept so sharp
and they are despots all
and they will cut the others to keep
their secrets safe and
while he brings his blade to bear
and cuts from time to time
he just can’t be okay with that
but he will continue, to keep
his secrets safe.
