====================
Dripping Blood Upon my hand
My scars too many to see where one begins
And the other ends with my soul on tethers
That have been burnt and encased in obsidian glass
====================
Darkling mist surrounds these walls
The strong wind cannot move the stony fog
Neither hail nor lightning can withstand its might
Even the greatest knight is no match, strength for strength
And yet the poet with his kind words is more than match enough
====================
The watery sprites will leave thee
In the starry heights of ecstasy
It is their wind that blows through your hair
Their kisses and embrace bring you near
Don't look for they will not appear
To any mortal eye or ear
====================
Tree Tree Everywhere
And not a fairy sight to see
Ever wonder what they dare
Hidden in folds of Imortality
====================
Frazzle
From the Dream World
Right into the ocean
Along the border between
Zany reality and
Zinking boredom lie
Limitless possibilities in an
Everyday Frazzle
====================
Climbing spinning
Twirling diving
Attacks and quirks her ears
Large eyes peer out from open face
Curled in a ball
And bats at you playfully when you walk by
Is she cat or dragon?
====================
Fixed skies and lightning showers
Beguile the mind of those who notice its powers
Its wonder and magic might
Bring rain and turn this day to night
Strong winds and un-earthly emotion
Keep away those who have not a notion
As to what true wild beauty it holds
This rain that makes shyness bold
====================
Long tails and wings
And furry things
And there lie the power
Enlightenment contained in a single flower
Upon a myth's scales
Sleeping in many misty dales.
====================
Fairy love more than fairly love
So simple and complex is true love
At first sight or forever in time
Glide by magically
Etherial purple dancer are you
In time to catch me fall on your flight around
I am caught in your fae gaze
====================
Fish Angels
If I was a fish
I think I would drown
My feety-fins
Would not keep me down
I'd float around on top
'Til I died and floated higher on up
Hit a cloud and there I'd stay
Wish wings rather than gills
So I could float higher on up
And hit the stars
Wish hair and skin rather than scales
So I could there beautiful be
Among other similar stay
Wish dead fish were Angels. No
Just me, never was a fish anyway.

====================
The ending day, the living night.
Waltz with me again age old friend.
For the end will never find us if we don't move in straight lines.
Cloak me in inky darkness and they won't see me.
I am the dark. The noble vampyr who knows.
===================
Cry out your fright
Or sing your delight
Dragon cares not who notices his passage
He, who can never remember his age,
Walks with the tread of immortality
And smiles like a child very giddy
=================
Little black bird don't run away
I have found you and will protect you
You're hazy eyes are blind and you have lost your way
I will help you grow up too
With bright seeing eyes
And black shiny feathers flying in the sky
================
Call out
With your voice so shrill
Flying above the clouds and
Swifter than a sunbeam is the
Falcon
=======================
Clever
The moon glows dimmer and dimmer
In the midnight sky
He thinks he's so clever
But it's all a lie
=====================
Dawn
When I
Walked toward the dawn
I saw the fire dancer
Scream at the sky and laugh at the
Eagle
=====================
Feathers
Dark clouds
Lightning and thunder
Harbringer of sorrow
You are not what you seem to be
Oh Death
==========================
