My Papers

Don't let your mind take hold o' me
I've had all mine eyes can see
"No more!" screamed the mighty empty soul
A shriek bid for a cry to see an empty mouth
From its gaping hole
Sigh with a whisper as in a story
Home is so far from a witness of truth
Lies to see that I wrote "you are sorry"
Lost in what I thought of as blessed harmony
I bleed with my heart only love with no translation
Save my hands comforting travelling inspiration
Come in, make a stay upon my abode
A pearly white paper beside the road
Why was it there to attract His attention
Papyrus on a road with no destination
We let it float dancing phantoms come before us
Too young to ponder a dancing paper dancing into
The night time forest.

"The heart can think of no devotion
Greater than being shore to ocean
Holding the curve of one position
Counting an endless repetition"

I liked this fozzy. Very well written!

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
