look, see
the colors all become one
black and white
fade to gray
an omnipotent darkness
an evanescent empty
gesture,
clinging to one last
bit of warmth
as the sun sinks
into a sea of blood
to soak in its own sin
reminded of the light (dark)
it sheds
reminiscing of its
innocent, happier days
shadowing the other orb
drowning its sorrows in the
dry-throated cries of the
northern wolf
until it rises, empty once more
drained of life
to begin its weary cycle
anew.
