Mad Waters

Mad waters come our way.
Seasons are gleaned from lean stems
beneath bloodless rocks;
thresholds, scorched, reprint footsteps
of dark ages replete with foul breath.

Alas, mad days are here.
And with clouds mourning near
disconsolate skies,
the heavens themselves lay siege on
the print-points of water buoyed up by
turbulent whims.
