The Observance of Transgression by M G Cannella

Oh see I
Through woeful eye
The sin befallen men
Oh see I
In twilights sky
A clouded sign to send
Breaking life and
Breaking dawn
To rise one stair to fall
A sinking silence
Slow to blend
With children’s laughing call
‘Tis to them
The world will go
And is to them we trust
A fateful, unforgiving end
If nurtured by our lust
