Deep, outside oceans
Hiding, cowered in their secret caves
Alone, quiet, lurking
Riding –
The darkness, of their waves

Calmly, the frozen present
Glides, along as a time shunned slave
As a vessel of empty
Writhing –
Into an extant chaos, forever, depraved

Interspersed, amongst the sprits
Life, listens, along a spectrum shaved
And prays, for new awareness
Diving –
Into the blackness, of their graves.

Retractions,
Of darkness
Revolutions,
Of heat

Restorative,
Anti-photons
Retraces,
Complete.

Reflections-
Bright and lonely
Yearning for instinct
Brave, volatile
Receiving inputs
In an output led existence
Screaming, for an identity
Within a consciousness
Of attempted being.

Ridges, of emission
Within a remnant, of fate
Becomes faint,
And elusive,
As a timeless free, gate.

Wing like winds
Wonder, and glide
Whispering, wishes
Through its wonderland –
Stride.

Intriguing, silhouettes
Of shadow, pirouettes
Reposes,
Cold themes
By exposing,
Feared dreams
Through the darkness
Of its silent
Extremes.

The frame of ghostly light within
Glowing, dark and cold
Sights its lonely, now begin,
Re-balanced, through its fold:

Our found, unnerved, deserted space
From sunken graves reborn
Sounds it’s brazen, silent chase
Through resplendent, scowls of scorn:

Of onward, slight, in downward cross
Unleashed, to fling its fight
Dons it’s shadow, echo loss
To a once, remembered light.

Vapors of dioxide
Released through splice
Reveal –
Their residual
In resplendent, dark ice.

Flashes of color
Unplan –
To create

Rebranding their construct
To withstand –
Their new state.
