"swimaway" poems
swim awayswim away
paper tyger
burning bright
in the forests
of the night
caught in
screens of
black
forest trees
paper tyger
burn
the night
swimaway swim away
paper tyger
burning bright
in the forests
of the night
burn
the woods
burn
the woods down
burn it all
but keep me
alive
keep me alive
keep me
alive
i will eat
the moss
out of
your sinews
keep me
a life
living off
of stardust
and of mildew
keep me
keep me
embers flicker
embers flicker
i will eat
the ashes
of your
heart
burn it all
burn it all down
don't let me
fade away
paper tyger
burning bright
in the forests
of the night
fill the sky
fill the sky
with glories
from your
lanterns
burn the night
burn the light
paper tyger
burning bright
swim away swimaway
