The melanoid focus of mechanism:
melancholy in motion
[Shutters collapse
this angel of winter twilight,
a figure-worn semblance
of repose,
staring,
stopped.
For only a moment
to glance out –
the shy thing that it is –
w/skin flexed,
warped to crack
and scar.]
as it pads w/lycanthropic
grace through snow like down
and ash
branches falling on
the forest floor in
latticed shadows against
the white collapse of wooded hill
where memory coughs violent
gouts of condensation
and dissipates into
one last angle of sunset sunlight –
the ground-level vapor at dusk.
