'Skipping in the railways of past'

' My master pulling the ropes '

' Fenced, whispering like the boy in stripped pyjamas'

' The heist of youth blossoms '

'Our soles unite in flash floods '

' Numbing our hands to become light - fingered'

'An estuary of addrenaline defines us'

' It's driftwood contemplating our fate'

' Saturated and battered he submerges'

'The protege clings above, drowning silently in the hours'
