The Glass Machine

The Glass Machine

A Poem by Skelterton
"

Delicate creation

"
When the ice melts, that's when I know I've
Created the Glass Machine
When I sob at the face of the cold, that's when I know I've
Looked at the Glass Machine
When I wander into the eyes of a ghost, that's when I know I've
Understood the Glass Machine
When the sand transfers itself into the basement, that's when I know I've
Spent time with the Glass Machine
When puzzles seem to disfunction within my blueprints, that's when I know I've
Broken the Glass Machine
When an episode of sorrow comes on the radio, that's when I know I've
Fixed the Glass Machine
When cobwebs reiterate the rocks and the abyss fills the room, that's when I know I've
Said goodbye to the Glass Machine
