Shuttered

Shuttered

I shut down time
Like a curtain on my window
Closed my view on moving shade
I made a stillness appear
Slowly as my heart bent light
Breathing still, I applied still sight
A race of emotion then
Urges to think in words
The clock returned, I heard
A squeak in the wind
With my chest full and lively
With shade still travelling
I opened up time
Like a curtain on my window

I'm trying to find some poetic voice again man. I've been doing this automatic writing stuff - straight from the subcon somethin - or maybe from there with a few stops or stopping there after a few other stops - it comes out like a bag of tinger toys with a leak in it
