You're a better me
       than I could hope to be
So I'll learn from lesser
       reads that in which I see
Reaching for what is we,
       for there we fly like free

the love flows like water today,
can you feel it ?
i'm leaking into the wind.
the car windows are down.
it's flowing new;
cusping of old.

a motorbike turbo.
an anthem of courage.
resonant dynamos.
canted sliding streets.

I leaned my head
against the comfort
of my wall and
smiled with my shadow.

the tower fell and now
we speak in so many
different ways.
so many different languages
more than even spoken by the mouth.

language
and
logic.

you speak
through the canvas.
flash your brush
on every secret
we could hold to keep,
you lover.

those that would silence you
know of your power.
but within the loving civility,
the silence of their hatred
shall destroy them
with their own suffering.
trust these words;
like a sign posted on city hall.

deny false disgrace.
but sharpen your ego.
don't harm your body,
tattoo it on your hand.

be my wet beach
be my starry sky
be my mountain peaks
be like me when I die
