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
