With wings at rest longer than its tail My hobby waits.  Great bird of creation, Where do you come from?  As I sit and mull You take flight to and from places I may Never know,                             Where are you taking me, Great spirit on high, far, farther-ring with light And the wind, which streams then to delirium Heights?  I am bled and I am torn.  Must I Suffer in my soaring?  Your clutch, tings The sky, pierce the cloud, my hobby hovers, I dream of coronations, talons to my head— A crown of thorns.

Some days yu know, mi just don't andastan How a man can do di tings him do, an see himself a man. Him seh dat god give im good sense a will and a soul to know right ting fram wrang ting, to know pit from pothole. But im covet an steal an shed blood like a beast. Then im walk inna church and pray god give im peace. Is a human condition an a weakness a flesh Is flaw in im naycha, a thorn in him breast. But we human creecha, ought betta than best. Ought draw a distinction from fish and from fowl. Ought rise above avarice , greed and the rest. But sometime I feel sure that the writing on wall. will come to fruition and mankind will fall. Is a small part of hu-man sunk deep in we core what comes up and sprout wings and carry us shore. Is that thing there, part spirit, part will, part divine. What pull us from struction then skitter, then soar. Then beat wings in hubris like Icarus lore.

So I took her to the river believing she was a maiden, but she already had a husband. It was on St. James night and almost as if I was obliged to. The lanterns went out and the crickets lightened up. In the farthest street corners I touched her sleeping ******* and they opened to me suddenly like spikes of hyacinth. The starch of her petticoat sounded in my ears like a piece of silk rent by ten knives. Without silver light on their foilage the trees had grown larger and a horizon of dogs barked very far from the river. Past the blackberries, the reeds and the hawthorne underneath her cluster of hair I made a hollow in the earth I took off my tie, she too off her dress. I, my belt with the revolver. She, her four bodices. Nor nard nor mother-o-pearl have skin so fine, nor does glass with silver shine with such brillance. Her thighs slipped away from me like startled fish, half full of fire, half full of cold. That night I ran on the best of roads mounted on a nacre mare without bridle stirrups. As a man, I won't repeat the tings she said to me. The light of understanding has made me more discreet. Smeared with sand and kisses I took her away from the river. The sowrds of the liles battled with the air. I behaved like what I am, like a proper gypsy. I gave her a large sewing basket, of straw-colored satin, but I did not fall in love for although she had a husband she told me she as a maiden when I took her to the river.

The Faithless Wife
With wings at rest longer than its tail My hobby waits. Great bird of creation, Where do you come from? As I sit and mull You take flight to and from places I may Never know, Where are you taking me, Great spirit on high, far, farther-ring with light And the wind, which streams then to delirium Heights? I am bled and I am torn. Must I Suffer in my soaring? Your clutch, tings The sky, pierce the cloud, my hobby hovers, I dream of coronations, talons to my head— A crown of thorns.

With Sweet words that capture my essence I'll believe in you within your presence clouds fill the depths of my mind Best regaurds to the fact that im now blind But I don't care, not right now Surely I'll be regretful tomorrow? Just hold me till it's too late if you're willing Say the tings that make me smile Even if its for a short while Make me forget that this was a mistake Let me think that its me that you want Just me Forgive me, i'm in to deep Though i've tried treading in shallow waters You've sadly almost caught me, was it easy? I struggle to get loose Your grip intoxicating Breath like chloroform Those soft touches burn, please don't stop my insides crawl with amusement and fear captivates my soul Though I know nothing good lasts an eternity I cling to this moment ; never letting it fade Forever burned into the side of my brain When you kissed me with velevet

"You are patient" She said. I'd never heard those words I've always been the one to jump the gun Its really hard for me To sit back in my seat But I'll wait Don't worry I'll wait You really must be special Because I don't have patience Its something for me to learn And I'm alright with waiting. Just hope you appreciate The tings I do for you Cause baby you so special That I'll be patient.

Patience
The first rays of sun falling over the pots kept on the windowsill I can hear the flowers stretching out after a nice, cosy sleepy fill. "Good morning little ones", I wish while watering them for the day, I can sense them glee, "You too, Mr. Nice Guy", I imagine them say. Getting ready for a bath, I could feel cold droplets of water splashing over my body. My new soap of lemongrass, smells refreshing. The toaster tings with two pieces out, And a bowl of milk with fruit loops. Getting dressed for work, tying the tie, Slipping the leather belt through the hoops. A fresh pair of socks near my shoes, so shiny, I could see my reflection, I think I forgot to comb my hair, but I am perfect with this imperfection. Tap my car remote and it unlocks, I sit in it comfortably, rev it up a little Start driving on the road, straight on but the distance seems abysmal. It suddenly starts to darken in front, The chills hitting me suddenly, I wake up from my dream, still in dark, feeling cold and in agony.

Around the bend, baggage claim. The carousel comes around again. I try to find the ones my own, I see the first as it comes down. This first one, small, so quaint, so plain. Carries all of my pain...tings. The second slowly drifts across, I'm glad that this one was not lost. A medium size bag with a tiny hole, It carries the remnants of my soul..dier memorabilia. Two more bags I await, the next one appears at the gate. Another smaller bag that is beat up, and tattered within. If opened you would find all my sin...icle comics that I collect. As I wait for my final bag. Hours pass as times drags. I ask where it may have gone, I'm told it was lost before the plane had flown. Saddened with this news alas. For that final baggage held my past...els.

it is cold then hot                     so quickly it is tough it is hard                     but melts with heat it tings it taps and                 knocks      about                              the surfaces                     of the kitchen worktop              these are properties that stir tea it is cold then hot                     so quickly it is cool it is calm                     but bends under pressure it sings it raps and                 talks      about                               the textures                               of existence              these are properties that stir me

****** up and falling fast I'm reminded that even now all I think about is you. Are you listening? Listening now? Aching, shaking, asking for no one but you. Tings ringing, remember much as I'd like to I can't sing something beautiful, Beautiful. You hate the idea but I wonder how I look to you. Want to rest my head in the roots of your omnipresence. Fill my heart and I'll be the inside of your silent arms. Call me breaking, call me giving up and falling in. Find me close and I promise I'll find a way to be closer still.

Nostalgic Slurs
she's in the whoosh feel her span through time it's all relative across dimensions and into space bigger on the inside smaller to the seeing eye walk around her you'll see but step inside and the venture begins she's an old girl stuck in the form of boxy blue past her prime yet still as sturdy she'll dematerialize at will speeding through rifts explore her corridors and discover her anew enter other realms, pasts and futures she's been at the beginning and to the end of time her companions many yet the one who's steady is a mysterious man one called Dr but no one knows Who except her for they've been together through ages only to get to say hello toward the end she's a reliable old girl who's traveled many worlds she's seen thing and heard tings you'll know her by the sound of her whoosh as she comes and goes.

Abjure the bones broken in, The first lift frissoned by The moving trees slain on the shift, Rivers and risen flowers cut, My statuary lurches betide The nap of bent wing saluting. My aviary is a fluttering bed, The scattered head REMs my flight, My feet in cloud extend for landings Tings the belled bound legging. My falconer bows with pride In the stall bent wings stooping. My clawed creature glides for only The pitching sun or shining moon And my flights execution, the hooded Head, end trails my falconer. My days, fowl to the lunar kite, Assail the winds open wound.

would you rather feel the sting of somebody not remembering you when they could not leave your mind even if you wanted them too? or forgooten, and glad that you were because of the awful tings youv'e done? or would you want to be recalled and here the dissapointment in their voice as to what they remember you as? or would you want to be recalled for the only good things you'vr done making your whole life, look like something out of an all to sweet fairytail?

As I sit and mull You take flight to and from places I may Never know, Where are you taking me, Great spirit on high, far, farther-ring with light And the wind, which streams then to delirium Heights?
