City stars look like birds. Last night, they flew away to the city far away. I write this city book (a diary); With mean pages of I pity and communist saints. Last night, I lay awake; I heard the night mumbling. The words- the words wouldn’t fly; I wanted to write them down; But the critic on my skin kept on giving me empty air. The night wind made many sounds; It eventually dropped my words. My words hit ground- Between the paper and a poet- There lays a kingdom in my mind- a creation. On the horizon, I drift into poetic speech; It flees into night glory. The city stars like birds (when they flew away, last night) They dove deep into my guts. I am - as the night calls me - a bird flying - - into the horizon. My spirit is melting on paper. http://poetryandwatertogo.blogspot.com http://www.voicesnet.org |

I enjoyed the write, especially this: I wanted to write them down; But the critic on my skin kept on giving me empty air |
