15.9.14

Light, Child

Lift your head, ye mighty gates.

Such quiet thoughts are these.


Jangling keys could sound success.

I'll let her know you're free.


Laugh a while, dungeon child

Strange highways roar above.


Life is ringing at the door

You pale prison dove.


Whistle sweetly, solemn eyes

My heart inhales coal.


Hope comes stumbling in for tea

Lift your head, my soul.
