Splay

Sing me your demons
Let them tear me away
From cloth wrapped on ankles
As trembling I play on that stairway to heaven
On these streets cobbled grey

Sing me desires
Let them tear from my heart
From the places you shelter
As illusions in part, let them stay
On these working street days

Bring me your demons
Let our minds fingers splay
From the places we hide in
As wayward’s still dancing
As requiems play.                        ~IW~
