Palm

Simple psalms

Against ones chest, a talisman or

Balm to aid her unrest

Apologies, for I digress

.

She

Sips her tea

Stands, then sits to read, to distract from

Her fear of the present

Moment only eclipsed by the

.

Pit

Earth, tomb, crypt

Her pools of azule begin to dim

A grim goodbye before

Ones lived, vita vanquished by whim
