The fine silk cloth, Once bright and rich Now torn and lying in rags Proceeds across The table top Like a parched hawk Flying slowly across the desert War weary And desperate for food, He wavers in mid flight And sails gracefully as is possible In an everlasting arc That twists towards the limitations Of the earthly body Divinely uttering the crys of the dead One last swoop, Leaves him tasting The sweet honey of satisfaction But knowing his time draws to Passes with no further pain, As the cloth falls from the table. I wrote this while I was having some wierd imagery with the whole eagle thing, arcing into different worlds and such. It was quite interesting. |
