Night rages in the wilderness
Of the heart
The systolic rhythm is all in a discord
A little nestling opening its beaks
For a morsel of moonshine.
It’s a daily eclipse now
The earth reveling in a somersault
On its axis.
Dolphins’ carcasses black and white
Blacken the conscience of the white Arctics.
The moon has gone to sleep
In the seven sleepers den
The world
Shrouded in a thick black coat
Waits patiently for Prometheus to return.
The deviated mythical Prometheus was standing at your back with fire until u finish this fine and wonderful piece of poetry..ya he resumes his journey once again towards earth.
