glow on forest floors, endarken

rises and falls with the ever louder strain
deliberate leather and sharp heel
ever arrives at your closed door seal

as if punishment is that ruler thwacked
on your disobedient knuckles, whacked
on your alternative beliefs and drummed
into guilt cogito et summed.

swirls, spikes and steady lines loop
a deliberate and severe execution.
