Jan 2019
I've fallen so badly
In the loveliest way
She is youth and hope
Peace incarnate

She will lead me astray
To the strangest of lands
I climb up her rope
To life's golden sands

Should I give myself fully
She would do me no harm
She lifts the whole sky
No earthly alarms

To the void's long keep
We'll breathe with the angels
In softened sighs
To the top of old Babel

Amidst harrowing storms
Jagged, veiny towers
The zenith of brevity
The brassen bellows

On top of this sap-laden tree
Where the stars finally contort
And intercept the grass itself
We will rest in a cedarn cove
