play it

light -
streaming through the doorway

talking to the darkness
keeping it away

filling up the time
steadying the ground

danger all around
trying to get by it

thinking with the rain
waiting for the moment

breaking down the walls
emptying the fortress

filling up the room
waiting for the rain

trying to find the open spaces

fields of stone
empty turnings

something small inside me
hiding

a dirty shield
against the enemy

no end to it
except in ruins
alone

a window in or out
something green
