I'll burn the sky black,
just for you to see
the colored, paling leaves
cupped into the breeze.
Spindly stem-light hold
letting go.

Skirting to the water,
a dappled leafy puddle.
Trembled, windless sails
without want of ships --
threaded droplet ships
without need of sails.

I'll burn the sky black,
roiling clouds of blotted light,
so in the darkness you will find
the gentle swimming of their sway.
Slowly growing cold,
losing all their gold.

Taste my lips, cinderless,
and brush the afterglow away.
The final colors that we see
before it fades.

That is why abstract is new.
That is why one word is but
one word said, without restraint,

Feel the fire
threading in.

without the truth -- the sadness
of our mouths' sealed shape.

Love this part Mike. Nice to see you here in Open!

When it's over, it's over and that should be for both! Thank you for sharing.
