Replying to a comment on:
Snow (Free verse) by MacFrantic
Cradles swaddle stones of sadly
broken infant bones.
Crying mothers spit
blue fireflies at the moon.
Police in camouflage and brass caps
stop to sing the blues.
Neon eyes wink past
the sunset's sinking swoon.
Maybe we'll be lovers in a dream
or in a book about despair
I want to feel the auburn waves
crash in your hair
But if it's loneliness you crave
I'll give back every gaze you gave
and fall a thousand times upon you
from the sky
When there's nothing left to breathe
In baths of blood and smoke we grieve
I'll drive a cold cold mile.
