The cloth of time

I lean silently on time
as it arrives through the door
stolen, snatched, torn out
from the invisible web around

A thread of silk astray
woven by moments seized
from the patched cloth of Skuld
an unnoticed slip of faith

I lean silently on time
wrapping silver around my soul
A glimpse of cloth disturbed
Verdande cuts, death unfolds
