SLICK CRACKED GLASS SPECTERS

bony specters rose

up from smoldering splintered coffins

made of black ancient wood.

 

specters gray, shimmering with

shrouded faces, misshapen heads,

soundless in the wispy mists.

 

thick dull bleary-edged apparitions

floating listlessly through swirling

spaces in the swelling smoking night.

 

slick cracked glass specters & me

me alone, pressed helpless against

the cold windowpane, staring

confused & needing to know.
