The Puzzle

Naked

Stand of trees

Black as cracks

In the universe

Angry

Though we be

Slack as wax

In a gypsy's curse

Clueless

Till Big Sleep

Prone in the back

Of a moving hearse

We fiend & fret

Claw bloody breasts

And never know

This life's a test

A puzzle

Missing pieces

In a game God plays

To reach us - teach us

Till our time

Turns dim...
