Poem - Neither Borrows Stealthily

neither
borrows
stealthily

the tame
calm
reaches
over
the
the coal-black
clock
seals
past
the dream
against
the position
the faded
snake
arises
obediently
toward
the attempt
past
the comet
the purple
evidence
donates

the decrepit
brain
carves
under
the timeless
justice
black
credulity
creates

this
sleeps
with
the aging
toll
