Candor spits upon
Darkest, deadly wrongs
Inducing the safest quays
Through pirouetting spells
And all would work so well
If but the spin hadn’t spun
Betrayal’s pivoted grin
An opening for
The awakening of triggers in
Pungent whiskered growls
Hunting in our sleep
Uncovering secrets buried
-Those burdens we all keep
Underneath and deep below
The many layers we’ve built onto
Yet despite our blind eye closed
Forgotten elegies still play
Their mournful, melancholic suites of song
"Blind eye closed" that was great, love how that play off itself so well. Secrets we all have we like to keep, or at least think we are keeping, when some already know.
