Debora Short - .Harden-ed Lights Calling Softly

A voice screams
Soft thoughts back
Claustrophobic crowds
Begin spilling compactly
In harden-ed
Neon light’s blazes and the
Air-less allies of wordless
Inanimate faces
Locked in sheep’s resolve
Booking life’s clammy hands
Into an age-old debut
Staging
Dance’s clueless
To the false essence
Of Ethereal tithing’s
