The heat is relentless
I wait around for dusk to arrive
While waiting for
Reprieve to arrive
While my father is fading
We are waiting
He is wading in
Still waters
Between the worlds
He says the words
Of peyote guides
In the crystalline skies
I saw in your soul
That time at the crossroads
And there are blue auras
About the land
I know not who
Heard echos spoken
They didn't see
How many are broken

r
I'm sick to death of me
living vicariously
through meaning-
less words like
a mocking bird
mocking a gull
on a wave-less shore
or a man without oars
(f)or a life (raft) on a lost
ship adrift in an angry sea
and no anchor or eyes
on the horizon somewhere
west of anywhere but here.

As we grew up
Together in the village
As young friends
In those dusty hills

Along the road
Gravity dragged us down
Gentle like autumn leaves
Either to fall in love
Or apart

And Life vicissitudes
Interfered
And I tried to play my part
From the core of my heart
Not to fall apart

Clearly
I was a fish falling in love with a bird
Living a dream of a hopeless heart
Impossible to fulfill

And hide and seek
The game we used to play
Down by the river side
And I realized
You’ve been always hiding behind lies
And I wonder why

Hey

I listen
I watch
I analyze
I compare
I find pattern
I detect the ways
I take note of the days
I make calculated determinations

&

Game changing speculations
Ascertain the ramifications

Of

Behavioral articulations

By Arcassin Burnham

Slave to perfection in your honor as you leave,
Putting together pieces that you broke can't give
The seed,
I'm realizing the love was real from the emotional
Decree of absolute modesty between you and me,
Do you agree?,
Crying hysterically,
And you know everything I think of,
And you know everything I dream of,
There's no other way to say your perfect only than the
Words I speak of,
You're practically covered up in dark endeavours
With your feathers,
Yeah their pretty long,

There's no other way to say that you're the one for me,
I'm coping , breaking out of insecurity,
I'm bound to evolution and my heart is buried in grass
But protected by glass encrusted figures in the valleys
Grasp,
I got not no way to see you,
You're practically covered up in dark endeavours
With your feathers,
Yeah their pretty long,
I say , "so long",


There's - No - Oth-er Way,
That I - Can - Make - You - Stay,
There's - No - Oth-er Way,
That I - Can - Make - You - Stay,
There's - No - Oth-er Way,
That I - Can - Make - You mistakes,
....just go.
