she does not speak to me often in this way she is the virile silence of walking truly like meadows their time is always perfect and infinitely perfectlessness how skies do not sing birds but are only masters of truth but she is tender and fierce she shows me that they are innocent when, I, confounded, aswirl with origami of things past, she shows me a bestilled flapping silence of forgotten things she does not speak often in this way when her hands are like eagles tending planets there is a secret river her eyes are filled with these pupils of newborn seeking first sight its graves and their strolling kisses no clock dares lie another tick she is brightly curved; night seeks to master her sleeping motions there is the skin of all salads I imagine I came from when she is gone I feel rain graveyards feed to oceans when water braided through myths and legends and lies is truest perfect lover, but no perfect lover is so tender and fierce she has taught me in this way how I am if I am a perfect child, then I am a perfect man but she whispers to me "this is why the wind is so filled with sleep" I know why the wind is the slave of kites and why balloons are thoughtful, secretly joyless, but filled with bad dogs and hope when she touches small flowers and leaves them be I know why birds are most beautiful in flight gracefully jetting terrifying rivers she walking strums wild instruments into me I wish to play like birds but only newborns are masters of truth but she whispers to me "this is why the wind is so filled with laughter" .

secret feet of balloons
she does not speak to me often in this way she is the virile silence of walking truly like meadows their time is always perfect and infinitely perfectlessness how skies do not sing birds but are only masters of truth but she is tender and fierce she shows me that they are innocent when, I, confounded, aswirl with origami of things past, she shows me a bestilled flapping silence of forgotten things she does not speak often in this way when her hands are like eagles tending planets there is a secret river her eyes are filled with these pupils of newborn seeking first sight its graves and their strolling kisses no clock dares lie another tick she is brightly curved; night seeks to master her sleeping motions there is the skin of all salads I imagine I came from when she is gone I feel rain graveyards feed to oceans when water braided through myths and legends and lies is truest perfect lover, but no perfect lover is so tender and fierce she has taught me in this way how I am if I am a perfect child, then I am a perfect man but she whispers to me "this is why the wind is so filled with sleep" I know why the wind is the slave of kites and why balloons are thoughtful, secretly joyless, but filled with bad dogs and hope when she touches small flowers and leaves them be I know why birds are most beautiful in flight gracefully jetting terrifying rivers she walking strums wild instruments into me I wish to play like birds but only newborns are masters of truth but she whispers to me "this is why the wind is so filled with laughter" .
