The Blizzard



The windows of the mind rattle
In a rhythm that's awkwardly obscene
The cold that creeps in through the cracks
Reminder of all that could have been

Frigid winds make it difficult to breathe
A crepuscular gloom covers it all
Shambling shadows that flit and flicker
Insalubrious intentions slowly crawl

Midst of all this a loon cries out
A shrill sound that pierces the sky
It burns through the dark of the night
Wakes up ghosts that begin to cry

The blizzard rages on
