Ten Thousand Miles From Home I could never explain what I had read. I spent my time walking away, I'm ten thousand miles from home today. * I played a safe distance and again I left behind and I was eager! This time I was much more eager than before. I set my back against the door and searched for fallen seeds, scattered there in fields, struggling with my absence. * Winter crept right unto bits, sugar coated what seething wounds revealed and silenced songs in secret slanted light. * I arrived so fast - so beautifully, ready to shed, hungry for breath, life in trails around,... I was nowhere to be found. Ten thousand miles from home. * I never meant to comprehend all that I was given. I only meant to find some pieces lost, once had. I could taste the seasons drawing life, devouring what stale remains surround. I should have shined for them, for them and me, for them and me and me . |

Spit Fire-- I never meant to comprehend all that I was given. I only meant to find some pieces lost, once had. I could taste the seasons drawing life, devouring what stale remains surround. I should have shined for them, for them and me, for them and me and me Your poetry shines, never doubt...it shines for you, and me! |

Winter crept right unto bits, sugar coated what seething wounds revealed and silenced songs in secret slanted light. You are shining brighter and brighter with each poem, excellent writing. It's in your eyes a fire that's wild and glorious Unhibited, unfinished in everything I do Let the morning rise like our hearts desire" whipping boy |
