Untitled #3

Twiddling thumbs,
itching fingers, 
thinking of
these thought
malingerers;

seeing those eyes
everywhere
and darkness
baiting,
deep despair;

playing games
with torn cards -
the folds reveal
their bleeding hearts;

noises, noises
in the sky -
celebrations.

Way up high;
down below
we never grow:
we only abide
by forlorn spells,
indulge ourselves
in tolling bells

and in our actions,
never one to chide,
we've satisfaction
that blank artifice
has died;

somewhere
there
within my night
she's lurking like
a tiger bright.

And all that's left
for me, for me
now
is a revelry
in its still
howl.
