we swung down out of the trees together
and looked across the plains
together
and started talking
and walking

we walked the plains
of Africa
and watched the sun set in our eyes
writing poems
with every breath

we lit fires and gathered
as cicada sang
and shared that which had been unspoken

the moon and its light on the glade
left us in a nod's refrain
the music is still spinning out....
gazing into fire again

and morning dew wiped from the grass
with dawn's legs stretching
tell me blue
is not just you
tell me white flame is my claim
tell me white flame is my claim

reading the age of stones in every step,
the wind in every
glance

let the storms of wind sculpt stone
and fashion these words out of a common bond

and the high falcon watches all the history unfolding,
infants
crawling

unmask her!
let her fly!

the winglings fly away

catch the knowing of her eye
and know that she be born again

whoa....I need some of what you guys were having...this is so cool...the imagery, the verbiage....

writing poems
with every breath


what else can poets do when poets do  
collaborate more please ... group inspire looks good on ya  

It's so nice
to wake up in the morning
all alone
and not have to tell somebody
you love them
when you don't love them
any more

I'd say this is a threesome worth repeating!
