The candle and the straw.
One for light,
the other for draw.

When feeling covered
by suggestions - time brought.
My bones are now covered,
I’m straw – their not.
I hear their footsteps, during the day.
But at night, we need not,
ask to stray.
this is when - I wear my straw,
for the candles light,
and the hum’s that draw.
I’m here, and there
and sometimes dare,
to move a curtain
for the one’s who care.

So visit me, like you do.
Or light me a candle, and
I’ll see you.



If nothing is something
then everything is
our thoughts and feelings
and all that exists.
