hugging the shoreline until the first rays of light drive the demons from the bay

pleasure is a sleepless night amongst rough waves

not just cosmic dust but a bonfire ablaze in this universe

train ride the bored mind reshapes daft faces

mynahs launched into the cold drafts of dawn

bonfires on branches the forest aglow in auburn

mind’s eye and subtlety is a grey tone of deprivation

she sits in the cradle of green her pride swallowed by the peace

summer trail these trees barely remember the old gods
