Rain 1:13 Lost Behind The Arc When Michael’s wings sighed In a brush of high cloud atop of her He paused to feel the way she moved Only to descend into the depths Of her swirl She lies now beyond the curve of earth And even though she stretched from ground To someplace just below thin air Where no man can live Is now hidden from my eyes While the sun laughs a wavered mirage That turns any distance to water One is unable to hold in cupped palms Or to trickle down a parched throat So must drink only with their eyes As sad relief from the humid air That closes elastic fingers round lung And leaves wet stains on skin I drip and rain again from brow Thinking how it was when she left Long wet marks Upon the bark of cedar limbs in a spend Of drops she could not hold My brow drips again And the sun runs his razor tongue Across the land Licking dry keepsake pools I once found respite Michael fell into the vortex of her And felt the pull of earth she claimed So spread his wings And only slowed the spiral down Knowing he too would taste the ground And feel her over him He wondered too How heaven moved against his heart Caught against the tops of clouds Yet buried deep in earth |

I really need to read these all together--this series truly a work of art and I'd hate to miss the connections and underlying theme. and this is a refreshing breeze as I just stepped in from out of the steam bath. (meaning I actually stepped outside today) *sweaty hugs* |

What can I say...it's been said... but more to the point... runnels of salt mar my face. |
