Cold Dark Matter You have taken all the pieces of a shed a lifetimes clutter, discarded, shut away, a nightmare buried dust deep in the corners of your head and then you blew it up instead. A wheel, a fork, the detritus of every day, you have taken all the pieces of a shed, the sight of it made me stop dead, fractured fragments splintered every way a nightmare buried dust deep in the corners of your head. A hook, an axe, a dead baby’s bed the, "Cold Dark Matter," of today. You have taken all the pieces of a shed trapped them with your dangling spider thread, a freeze frame exploded every way, a nightmare buried dust deep in the corners of your head. I wonder what it is you dread death, destruction, life in disarray? You have taken all the pieces of a shed, a nightmare buried dust deep in the corners of your head.
