-------------------- With Both Feet on the Ground Hello, dear-one. What say you in this lowly place? "When twilight traces the terrace, Touch the torch-sky with the tip of your lip.                A sweet heat Will draw your willful mind, But watch! The torch-sky takes:                Heart-stems                Drip                Drip                Petals shower The firelight blaze, like my root vein, Spills languid and warm across the sky.                Beauty in elation                But now breathe out!" -------------------- Then Into Deep Water Say, dear-one, What's all this now? "The blue of night is sweeping over the torch-sky, And shadows steal swiftly as silent silhouettes,                Come coldly dancing Do not disdain—dreams form feather-light foam, And fade heavily in a salt-wash, flooding fervently.                 Covered darkly                 Step                 Step                 Shiver forward From terrace to sea my foot falls easily. Then the eerie eels entwine in the brine.                 Feeling supine                 Let the deep creep                 Until next time." -------------------- But the Canvas is Brighter Still Stay awake, dear-one. Is there not more to tell? "The search for halcyon has wrought hush-flickers: Stars  staring brightly stripping night's dark domain.                Drifting dazedly: humorous 'Theirs is a humming neatly humbling hysterias.' Whispers Nyx, 'Dwelling hinders what dreaming may fix.'                Sleeps slips                Blink                Blink                Morning stands Beacon! Bright butterfly, beckon bravery! Billow boastfully—this day will be mine!                Keep in mind,                It's always divine." Very good, dear-one, A fine farewell.
