by dawn's grey light fading night br still waxen body ghosts waits... br shade when will you need spent br in clay broken rent husk release? br br thou art not an aging mannequin fashion br sense dust lost in display shop window... br vacant gaze staring once handsome gone br soon must rest long upon another pillow? br br face memory dances a familiar sight br yet not; death sudden altered sting pain bite; br unique soul essence trapped before flight? br br soul essence gone dissipating fading leaving br behind broken; body mask once wore worn grieving; br without spirit animated soul is leaving outer casing?br br Terence G.
