A Plea

Eyes, powerful
                         pleading
                                       beg, beg me
          To calm
                       to heal
                                  to quiet the voices
                    They darken
                                        darken his eyes
                              I know what is necessary
         I blanket him
                              with red velvet
Leaden eyelids close
                   Rest slowly takes him
       Into the security
                                 of oblivion
