The Execution

tree limb catastrophe 
heavy with winter smut
that never leaves
leaf blacken slush
balancing on shadows
of a sun that forgot
it won
the battle 
against night
when snow is King
sneaks up on
dreams
powdered streets
deep, dont open
your eyes,
these winter nights
are proud
i found 
me
beheaded
on my knees
the winter trees
weathered can 
Snap
like my neck
the weight
too heavy
too late
