Rumour, I falter

A human night, breaks open

Like a corpse, rotten, smell of

Evil, like a rumour from afar

Laughing corpse, curses,

Revolving eyes pierce my night

Dawn, a light lost, her alone knows, I’d give my very soul, axis chasing cars, chasing day, axis, spinning, doors shutting, I turn: where has she gone?

Day is rotting, a dim shade, a

Film over light, and people talk

Idly, my soul revolves in night,

A dark age, takes over humanity.

Infects to touch, I falter, dusk

Attacks darkness; darkness, light

Electric, crams, buzzing against the forehead, cells of people, commute, like sirens, saying, “1984”, and silences ill meaning

Laughs, saying, “Free-fall”. Day

Be night, clod of earth! Timepiece

Measured end of time, nightmare moves, light does not escape hell,

Emerge, crawl, you ghouls, upon

My soul.
