The night is harsh
But a set mind is an asset

Sparkling breath contrasts
A deathly black and magical sky

White steam rises from a mouth
And they are unwary

The ground is hard under foot
A pace picks up and a hand reaches

Into a coat pocket which twitches
As a hand clutches the object

It would shine, but tonight
It is dark

Two people meet
They know each other well

But one shows happiness
It is ecstasy

One knows something
One knows how...

A night disperses
Two people on a roadside

But
One lies on their back, staring

He is dead
He did not know

But the other puts his knife back
He did know
Because he is alive

Hair blows in a wind
And one man walks away

Ecstacy

Topic: ambiguous

The night is harsh
But a set mind is an asset

Sparkling breath contrasts
A deathly black and magical sky

White steam rises from a mouth
And they are unwary

The ground is hard under foot
A pace picks up and a hand reaches

Into a coat pocket which twitches
As a hand clutches the object

It would shine, but tonight
It is dark

Two people meet
They know each other well

But one shows happiness
It is ecstasy

One knows something
One knows how...

A night disperses
Two people on a roadside

But
One lies on their back, staring

He is dead
He did not know

But the other puts his knife back
He did know
Because he is alive

Hair blows in a wind
And one man walks away
