            This sickness wintering

The sun doth delight no longer but has taken his away,

As the nemesis of life revels in the shortness of the day.

Wind sirens have come with the death march fist,

 crows follow  reluctant spectral mist.

Zephur winds play doleful scale among the  wires

 as old corn gluttonously eaten from the way clad in frost attire

feed the black crying shadows longing a sun's fire

A lonely pallor of gray is all that can be mustered when light retires the day.

Would that winter would forget her sour note and content with muddled haze.

She will not now nor ever has. The bite and shortness of warm contrasting blaze

that kept her distant for moments coveted, till the hero of light went astray,

gives rise to victory in her icy heart and her less than desirous way..

 

I wonder how I will  live it thru, this wintering of days

Necrotic flesh abides within itself and feasts its fats away

Old dreams are enticed to pacify

 Sweet muses, enchantments from afar

And tired I am becoming to run the maze ,

Countless and innumerable spring summer and frosty plague, the fallen

Marching carnage cascading streaming down in the wind

Choosing moreover  a rotting tumbling mass grave

who feeds the spring and gives it bone to grind and blood to drink and savor

With all its parade and color. Sacrificing all for new

Giving all old carnage to new born days till it beside itself in age

Doth change its newness again to bound winter's slave.
