the bird not the body function
leave the body behind
the birds are being swallowed by the sky
The clouds are welcoming to them
I think 'take me too'
feeling left behind
Elizabeth Hynes Sep 2014
You are all I see
Yet your voice, is like a bullet
You fill up my days
Yet I despise that fact

I cannot leave
Or even move slightly apart
I am caught in the web
That I don't know if you know you wove.

The bug to the moth said sit right down
The door to the cloth said shine my brown
The man to the mouse said watch my frown
The ghost to the egg said 'eiderdown'.

War is an outbreak
It is a pestilence
We don't know the cure,
For her:the world.

I see the news and it makes me
Wretch.

She sits and ponders
What she might do
Gets nothing right
Falls out of love
With life

She reads books
Attends sessions
A bystander
Empty handed

If and if only are her motifs
She writes in sans serif
font waste time
Elizabeth Hynes Sep 2014
I am sitting here
Should I be honest
Or brave
Or foolish
I choose wise

I wait.
