Cortege
Lines slide thin
What is needed
What is wanted
Honoured
the avowal
warrants latitude
larceny excused
the steamed sheets
hot breath showers
raging insults
forgiving twilight whisperers
sanctuary
demons sheltered
small rests
decisions unrequited
soft pillow forgetfulness
morning tills a new furrow
curled hair, pleasant familiar scent
war kissed fevers
forgiven
small lives
become heroic

salute...
writing intoxicates
the din
breaks open the cast
like a rough shin
freedom seeping in its gasp
stretched in its sweet painful
wrench
open the stars
and kick start the life
and lives
shattered on the beach
of creation
and extinction
damn you write well..
our lives before and now
are here..
transposed on its shimmery
overlay
wide screen breath
in and out
the focus fuzz tone
ringing through the white
noise of illumination
the tired dark
like a skin
scarred
and thin...
remember the pocket shelter
where treasures lay
and dreams be
that thin line of vision
and dreams
shinning like hope
