Out of shrubs
25 July 2016
Hovercraft
Picking up surges
Morpheus
Friend and Foe
Dealing or reducing blow
From within dreamland
We expand
In knowledge of light
Laced with dark
Subtle spark
In between the waterfalls
The switch lies shining
Dark shivers
In lakes of my mind
Where owls prowl
Like tigers
Their eyes jaded obsession
Of recognition
Streams of me
Gather through the flares
The Beast wears
Many masks
Irreducible the tasks
In crossing rivers
Bear me ankh
She circles ankles
The Mother
Lifts shackles
Those that divide spaces ring
Trinkets of morrows
Spent sorrows
Realised in heart
They grow joy
Out of shrubs
The tigress daily counts cubs
Under her nights’ watch
Reading of the poem:
Where do we draw the Line – Poets of the Fall
The Poet and the Muse – Poets of the Fall
Love will come to You – Poets of the Fall
