Now that the light is fad i n g
the south stares from across the earth.
The north has already been d r a w n of its color.

heaving
breaths.
His tongue s

that’s why i pity you. you pilfer wool to
sew into your sight. smear fool’s gold against
your speech. all for an edged ego. so desperate to
hold a bit of humanity. you’re not privy to that.
you must prey in order to procure some company.

He caught them inside and they circled in pride.
Marked his exterior with a slight grimace.
A commencement of deliverance.
