What of tears

Give nothing to my sashay skin to level their cells.
I will be patient, till then you’ll see me                                                                               In the grass that grows too long before it’s cutting.

You would betray my worded numbers, for a
New grazing on the sills of dawn’s creativity,
wherein robins share their story.

Let no words take tolls on me, or the lists of         alliterations in some writings that I do,
I would not have written them.

You are in my confidence, my little teardrop drinker                                                     you have used your hours for solicitation


I am the two-toed wanderer

This is fantastic! I've read it over and over, and am no less impressed with each reading. There is imagery that breathes, words that scream out whispered ideas. Very, very well done.
