The Cripple

The crippled mind
Struggles to define
What is
What's not

Searching a point
Thoughts anoint
Too many
Uncaught

Simmering in the sun
Trudging weighing a tonne
So much work
No rest

Vision slowly breaking
Following paths cracking
Nearing end
Close to begin

The crumpled heart
Beats ragged part
Thumping
Too soft

Hell frozen over
Flames sinking under
Icy chills
Biting the bone

Left to chance
No energy left to prance
Grounded down
Motionless
