blue bodies
who said the night blue
the hue - was never so cruel
than when blue bodies roll
their lights lit like sirens
who said good nights black
the lack - of sad songs I get
could one day come back
their sounds spun like Heaven's
I pity the Who who hums heavy hues
heart hymns a wound
never atop
shimmering weather
slow slunken skitters
swallow and wither
bitter
bitter
bitter
bite the everlasting keens
bittered battered badder better
I don't know I don't know I don't
there wasn't a sound but I don't
know there wasn't a light but I don't
see I can't I won't I must
I want
I want
whatever it is that I don't
can't won't must
...
(wait for wings)
what wings are those that won't warm
freezing cold in heat storms
I touch the icy windows
but they only come 'way lukewarm
warn the icy shallows
my hue goes only ice cold
blue ice cold blue rolls
with bodies that would follow
follow in the shallow
shallow flowing windows
there is nothing but my cold hums
to keep my body lukewarm
lukewarm but the good nights
never seem to follow
follow until I feel numb
and can finally see the morrow
(Tomorrow comes to follow
follow to lie fallow
plough the good night's black hue
till I can finally renew.)

Pretty sure this poem doesn't make sense.
