Seven Efforts
Second hand
Never wanted to
Make it hard for you
To land

Defend, pretend
We're not punctured through

Retread, depleted
Afraid of what we'll lose

In a freeze, with a wish for warmth
Taking off our clothes
Haunted offerings

How wonderful, how beautiful
Wet from fallen snow
Haunted offerings

Rescind, begin
See yourself again
Cave-in
Breathe in
Cut away loose ends
