Dream when Spring Leaves behind A heave of finger Slung across The cool, wet, dirt The forest leaves A paper trail Magnetic poems Splayed on the ground Winter’s tail Still whips these parts A play whose language Precedes its cause “I’m the wind that strikes you down” Unseen his words Feel brittle now A mad breeze burns Floods frantic hair The skin of drunken need All will twist upon a course That nature slowly weaves Each poem lost Or burned for fuel A catalyst A need for more As dampened dirt From loss of blood Has finger Dig your grave I will find you and read your work… You who fell not far from tree [This message has been edited by wayoutwalt (01-29-2002 07:15 PM).] |
