Heaving seas of uneven time

Misty misting mist in the air

Dylan had it pegged - from here, where is it we go?

To the mountain?
no thats been done before

Swim the canals?
from which we were born

Burrow in the ground?
sleep hard the winter long

Trickle into space?
fading bright like the diamond star

After here - it ain't all that you see

Cast aside - your dreams for sleep

Begin to end or - bend to win the prize

Toes in the sand - eyeball the flexing tide.

Be strong like a sun floating in her womb
Be thick like screaming vines that hang from cracks in the moon
Then leak like moments of falling rain on grains of sand

For thirsty leaves grow on stone-
then crumble into earth

Old gray skies tell tales-
of the once living dead

Breathe as the bleeding wound-
while hard wood forests sleep

Crying like a boulder-
bereft of a true north

Stumbling home a warrior-
that has no place to go...
