Fishbone

Reach out with a fish bone finger to touch the face of youth. Using the senses to recall what life once felt like. Reach out with a fish bone hand. Wrap it around the shoulder of death, Make him a welcome guest, so that he may bring you peace and comfort. Reach out your fishbone arms. Embrace the soul of winter. May its cold nature light a fire in your bones. Lay down your old fish bones Lay down that old skeleton, so you may find a new kind of skin
