Pouring Rain, Two Bluebirds That Went Insane

I won't back out.

What do you want to do?

With a passion

for the fashions of a time passed,

I've forgotten how to analyze:

what makes me a *****

I've forgotten why

I'm sleeping alone-

I'm dreaming-

alone.

And my dreams

are but mine alone.

 

But...

 

I'll rig the smallest ship

and I'll challenge the stars

because the gods live too far away

to deliver me...

 

when your lips

are the sweetest figs

and I can't see

through the fox-bark mist.

 

I apologize,

is there any power,

any power behind this?
