Rusted Snowflakes


Rusted Snowflakes in the air tonight

Screams of joy killed the silent night

Shrilling cars and hearts a beat

Failures inspirited minds fall forward

Red Rusted Snowflakes in the air tonight.

 

Tears of grey illuminate the far dark night.

Men cheered with fire and ice

Banging and clanging with drums of flesh

Ringing of the town houses foggy bell

Burning Red Rusted Snowflakes in the air tonight.

 

Streets of Bronze paved with rust

Fatherly souls forgetting their young

Sinless ones turn to rage

Crying Burning Red Rusted Snowflakes in the air tonight.

 

Explosion of poison and fogs of green

People stood in silence as if stuck in place

Animals yelp, kick, and shout

Rusted red and peppered with black

Nothing in the air tonight.

Aren't we all just weird? In this grand scheme of things that the world so tirelessly brings.
