heed the rattle
the shivering inside
simple things forgotten
chatter at you right through the night
from the rooms in the house
that you're afraid to use
windows in a fortress
i eye the openings
tongue a drawn up drawbridge
a delicious thing that keeps the secrets in
you are locked
and the keys
are frozen in the moat
pressed against the door
my axe stuck in the ice
heed the rattle
it tells you where to go
through the terraced gardens
into the wilderness below
to see the scene
behind the scenery
sleeping in a city
walled against the world
sleeping inner cities
tower in you
waiting for the word
that the guard is asleep
..the towers empty out
what's the guard against?
and why is he so tired?
sleeping on the ice
dreaming of the fire
