Come Out
Wild flower spread for me.
Winged angel sing.
Naked muse come out.
Black swan dance with me.
Summer is ending
full of love’s sorrow.
Weigh my suffering
in the pain in the wound in my heart.
Mine is the light.
The animals take and take.
The skylark sings
of the roads I must travel.
Breaking Bread
Breaking bread
with a bird
in a dream,
the bird takes
his piece and
pecks at it.
Soon it is
in flight and
it sings out.
My piece of
bread is gone
in one bite.
I do not
sing. I fly
in this dream.
