the dark
is deep
and so much folded
you might lose your way
it's music
that we're into
true
it idles after
with a loping lilt
shut eyes
and you expect
but there's more to it
than that
so beautiful
and all we make of
moonless
far from city light
is it fearful?
has my smell
and it reminds me
tear at it
pick
pitch in
I fall feet first
beyond the stars
am I the dark's
worst fear?
ear to the ground
to the wall
the dark is all around
a touch
what I don't know
comes after me
I feel the hot breath
back of neck
that's the journey
to silence
of the eye at least
and I absent myself
I witness
the unwritten
though there's
some script under scratched
and every night I dream
so practised
I am with this dark
I get by tooth and claw
where
I go to's
where
I'm from
won't
you come
with
me?
Inky!
