material suspension in vitreous solution #5

material suspension in vitreous solution #5

slow writhing down the omens
                     chains of possible things
fears or
        promises any sense of
        knowing must pass
fast writing down the omens
       a speed this medium is unaccustomed
                    to warp and align perception
with reality, petty as it is
                           and unknown to it
       are these musics?
naught of time but a rhythm
           yes, it holds them fast and turning black
no ministrations may refresh it nor composition command

a certain sobering respect for
                                        the living
silences the mouths of the dead
             passing down the omens
