head held high

my thoughts are beginning to rot.
mold and moss hang over them

In flesh,
my eyes reach out
towards an overgrown field
of stale, yellow grass.

I catch a black widow
on the edge of my conscience

as the warmth from the sun
creeps over my shoulder blade.

Until the sun comes
into full view It seems
I will remain cold, still,

collecting spiderwebs
across my bones.
