wise romp

   Remove the barrels from the forest     
clear the space of light
for limit crossed
leave the tree
erase our memories.
Advance at dusk
close to a night of audacity
accustomed
grope for the nave of prayers
rise in perfection.
Loaded with memories
on the sunbeam
on a vibrant morning
count the specks of dust
twirling in the half-open shutters.

Gambade
piano didgeridoo
honey melody
witch encounter
dance of bygone times
elves and trolls
mingling with ocean scents
spin the wind
over the horizon
the rain claps
animal scrabble
churns at night
failed orders
often the rebellion
things so long contained
creeping advance
between gorse and broom
the walls open
spin the wind
hollowing out space
spin the wind
chasing seeded bubbles
spin the wind
in its royal momentum
spin the wind
terminal rustle
spin the wind
before the great silence.
