23/F I write 'coz I've got a mind that's full and spaces that are not.
"You shan't sleep. Not a wink!", she says as she beams, and beams, and gleams. Who is she? I do not know. To whom does she speak to? I do not know. Yet, here I lay watch until she slips out of sight to leave me longing.                                           ... until I am                                                           no more.

Hear the raucous universe hum itself to sleep The rhythm of the bleeting, babbling, fence-jumping sheep The beat, its regurgitating engorgement: inhales, groans, sighs... This is the song of the tempest lullaby

The Tempest Lullaby
Deluded sailor on his vessel Set out to drift on sea, it lies Smiles. Dawn only, merely, but a distance to the eyes

I walk the earth Traverse mountains and seas I claim nothing to my name What I am is not me What I will be is not I

Carbon Footprints
Go on, shout your sorrows and fury to the midnight sky! With all the respect due the stars shall live on to whisper and the moon shall glisten through with the vesper You are but a celestial body Inert to your orbit The First law is true but the axiom is all you And, there exists only presence or absence

Axiom
The world is at its end I see the ocean at my window Maria Cristina sputters her last of tears I have no more to give.
