WD 206 “Artifice”

A poem inspired by The Muse of Cold Earth.

Artifice 

A lie

A clever distraction 

Braced end to end in iron bars 

What am I 

But a carbon copy 

Of every breath you take 

A sad memory on the sweet breeze

When you close your eyes to shut off the electrical circuits in your head 

The whirring of gears 

Simulating a song
