Like phlegm at the back of your throat.

GRAVITY RISING


In gravities hollow hourglass flow
the finest New Year grains will go.
Hope hangs on horizons best
like the solemn gaze that faces west.

Dreams of laughter frigid go.
A colder fall than winter snow.
Family of friends return to dust
in spite of prayers all things must.

So much can be for all who see
Through patterns of adversity
Fixated though on gambits pawn
May steal away the coming dawn.
