Riven and Wry

Riven and Wry

these ribs 
are heavy
and
I cannot
brace the sun

fingers like
the pauper
I slowly
come undone

tooth by tooth
nail by nail
an eye
for an eye
skin so pale

let the ravens fly...

And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon’s that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o’er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
  Shall be lifted—nevermore!

Loved the title you've chosen for this, Theresa.
Again, nice and dark...just as I like it.
