Description Arms like diesel engines churning, artificial.
Roses' yearning, strength in beauty worn by violent
Marks as vigils spark a wreckage, slowly fighting;
Somewhere out there, redefining where the sky went.

Now in silence, mouths like mirrors cutting winter,
Soft attention paid to statements non-transparent.
Stabilizing rising flames of atom blossoms,
Someone out there deems disaster now inherent.

Focused on the sounds,
it's lyrical, Rick. 

Unless I'm missing something,
perhaps 'violence' in place of
'violent'? [rhymes not needing
to be exact].

I re-read a large portion of what I write aloud so I guess that's where the lyrical attention comes from.

Yeah that portion does seem to sound wrong now that I reflect on it. Perhaps an edit is called for. Thanks for pointing it out.
