Midnight Waltz

The following poem was compiled through my new set of magnetic poetry! I added some words, but I used mostly only those available. Written on 11/13/09.

Midnight Waltz

yesterday the broken window cut through the brilliant evening sun-
translucent yellow rays danced across a warm breeze
dazzling every flower with its poetry
the shadow's rhythm on the wall-light lingered
interrupted by the piercing glass
the sun bled red as it floated along the edge
beams pierced straight through, seeping color slowly
the poison eternity almost hypnotic
the blaze of its death a splash of crimson across the sky

perhaps a dance with night can bring peace to this violence
