Fangs dripping venom
Savage bites wound deeply
Caustic moving air

Thunder’s false calling
Empty promise of rainfall
Deception’s sad rage

Drifting upon summer air
Dark clouds move eastward

Eye burning deeply within
History’s judgement

Moments flickering
Ever so briefly shining
Glimpse living sunlight

Echoes of Anger

June 16, 2015 Carl Setzer4 Comments

Fearful of ancient rage
Rattling dusty cadavers
Forgotten dreams 
Hidden within
Away from the glare
Of expectation

As I lay dozing
Resisting this wakefulness
Longing for more rest

The faded calling
Winter’s voice now is silent
Longing for coolness
