I let my mind flutter for moments.. I'd share them with you.. |

Yes, there is fear within open eyes. So I close them.. I embrace blindness. Although it causes me to miss the doves who nest on the ground and the preditorial aspect of these fluttering things we love.. oh the tails are twitching. I saw this thing it's last breath.. I cupped life in my hands, if it were only as easy as lending breath.. In the mouth of my garden a secret just waits to be uttered.. something bound in magical wire something made me this way..someone crossed my stars right out and i heave my tongue into my lungs so that not only would I be blind but also I could no longer speak.. Using signals and scents to make my way along the shrine of datura.. a poison well we drink the very existance. should we touch upon youth, we'd never learn with age.. Amazing how these things work, i perspire with loving rage.. Must the ground seem so close as I'm falling? I never once admitted in my belief.. So I stumble 'cross doves and I let them feather around my feet.. All unknowing of whether they've grown black, bleak..and void of divinity.. if the young survived.. I am one of many.. who has found stength in the weak. |

There is much to be learned from the weak creatures in life...if we open our eyes. This reminded me to do just that, and take a better look at the world around me...thank you, and this is a lovely writing! ~S~ Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart ~~S~~ |

must the ground seem so close as I'm falling..? - better to be close than far away... to much time to think about the fall... as a Gin drinker once said... I love flying, I just hate the landing. keep your feet in the garden K. dale |
