Words without meaning An open mouth seems empty Trying to express Something that dances lightly Forefront of a clouded heart
Bickering tree frogs Endless croaking back and forth Dream a soothing song One where two branches can meet In this capital forest
Five points to this as stated thus… Five; to pick up things once falle… Four; to grasp all things from wir… Three; to greet, to cheat, and din… Two; to bind wild lovers with gold…
To etch a love song No earthy ink can suffice Only color drawn From such a naive heart-well Could paint even an inkling
A sudden rain flux A faintly calling whisper To turn off eyelids Yet I cannot shake my dream For just another hour
Fresh Seattle rain Cleanser more of soul than streets I envy that sound Such simple pure harmony Don’t forget that umbrella!
Seasonal ill’n Ado, ado, soft achoos Cool wind seeps through me
The spotlight glares down Bright, bright, sight, sight My cloak swiftly surrounds White, White, Swish, Swish, The fabric shell billows but stays
Ask me who he is A tall tree and branches keen words drop; leaves shaken I try to collect them all But forget them by the stream
Anticipation Generic butterflies swarm Twists, knots, fluttering They find no golden nectar Only number two pencils
Tonight I awoke to an orange hori… one that I had never greeted befor… It took me back, to the days of ce… and disregard for the ticking of c… Part two:
The words are muffled and shifting… The pounding won’t stop, the fraye… I hold onto a thread, a little blu… The tension is mine; it is a pain… Frenzied energy drains from my fin…
A blank white tablet Fuzzy buzzing silences Click, click, click, and yet That single black divider keeps Blinking an endless cycle
To puddle one’s words Few are willing to admit Myself least of all To fall and land upon earth Closer to Earth than before?
Scattering shy leaves Skittering down two by two In Fall’s breeze they sink Forming such a golden path Blind-folded hearts can follow
