A crimson halo
Against a sky of wood
Nails rusted with the brush of time
Against the lapping of the waves.
Footprints
Once scattered upon the sand
Now lay silent and hidden
From the eyes of stagnant graves.
Spattered blood
Upon the blades of grass
Whispering against the drifting wind
Against the bodies wrapped in silk.
A sponge
Soaked in wine
Sweet to the tired spirit
Like that of a mother's milk.
Day and night
Pass 3 times behind stone.
All is quiet and still...watching
As death and night begin to wane.
One hand
Wrapped around the world
Holding tight with love
As wings approach the open flame.

=====
Just enjoy it. That's all I ask.

Another wonderful poem written by you. I really liked it.  

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

You'll be glad to know that I did enjoy it. I'm going to have to read this more than once to fully understand it but the way it's written is well and will obviously have a deeper meaning in there. You're going to make me find it, aren't you?! lol  

Thanks for sharing and I'm off to read the others now.
