Another world



Shadows settle down in a drizzle
on the symphony of bones and flesh
A collective voice hums on a high
as the walls crowd in waiting
A moment frozen as the limbs reach out
Perhaps another world is a fleeting touch away

Restless

Walking down the sidewalk
Bright sun shaking itself dry, pouring
down as a trickle on the head, Soaking
up the heat, it bloats me from inside

Its faraway, anything that I can touch
world is flattened to the sides, flying
far away like a kite; thread hanging loosely
from my hand; I draw in fresh air, freedom

From here till where, debilitating obsession
with direction, groping, feeling for tomorrow
an eternity of expression looking for certainty
Looking inward, a beautiful mosaic, but all in knots
