This hour shakes
as if it were to crack

An afterthought
of goodbye

Scatter do the sweeter things
like creatures caught in light

When the burden of wait looms
hungry over such patient shoulders

Writing with guides
straightening the lines

Memory rebellious askew

I give in to the gravity of word
falling from skull to paper

This hour should be over
in unimaginable future

Gem.. wow.  This is... this is something great.

An afterthought
of goodbye


That part just stuck with me... wow.  I'm struggling with words today.. too much coffee.

What about China? Have you seen the Great Wall?
All walls are great, if the roof doesn't fall.
