Insidious Nox Poem by Rory Briggs

Insidious Nox



The night is dead.
Mellow light stubbornly submits.
A heinous haze sifts in,
Unnoticed it sieves above.

Not a sound nor a tread.
What fills up the ground?
Through a ghostly glare
Of frostbitten dews
All aligned, benign, in their pews.

Not a tear, not a touch.
Not to blot out the moon in two.
It’s promised this much,
Not to dissemble the scene
Or seal it up with gullible glue.
