angst of night

How you cling 

to the roof of my mind

That esoteric creature 

Of folded wings;

and hueless eyes;

of quiet gaze: resounding 

 

That creature of dream

Of unfurling wings

Of torment of mind and;

angst of night

of stretch of skin:

flit of shadow; in candlelight

 

With bead of eye; and

beat of wings; bedlam through 

the night you bring:

Like moths intrigue 

Amour of flame 

I'm draw into: resounding gaze

The repeated use of the word 'gaze' made me continuously think of the word 'quartz' which in turn brought a surplus of imagery itself.

Well done.
