Excerpt Of Boyhood
i yield damages—
"On a marble bench, dreaming:
I can never hold arms of war
but i can cradle the artillery
of love."
some excerpts of boyhood.
some lines written so long ago as
a distant dove hovers, postpones
the herding word,
yet so near to me as a crouched dark
clenched in corner, knowing all the bends and turns of the road.
if i am braver than all — imperative
enough to toss the fear out of night,
or to wring broad daylight of birds,
why must it decree me?
remembering it rearing all the stillness
flown in the wind, the storm of my
younger self crossing Earths in all sides,
treading the tightwire something still
i am the wind and the peril knows my name, making wounds real again.
