During the rhythm of the night.

During the rhythm of the night.

A Poem by andrew mitchell

At heaven's door
no longer under lock and key
I crawl through her window,
her soul bares all,
and lurking in the shadows,
a goods train passes by.

Hundreds of arms outstretched,
extended reach out begging
while each track echoes
the beats of her heart;

they have no faces
I hear their cries
long into the rhythm
of the night.

As the train disappears
into the clouds of darkness;
in the garden of Eden
through wrecks and ruins,
- the ugliness of it all,
another fly is caught
in her web.
