caught in the middle of
metamorphosis

Unable to crawl
yet still unable to fly
no one knows how to approach
the creature that I am

More than barbaric
less then Angelic

entangled with technological
loneliness

all these machines can't free me
(though I love them all)

I wait for something
human

I will let the love I feel for her
remain a secret in my soul

(and that secret will change the
world through shadows)

She had the kind of face
that made you believe in
humanity

(that made you happy mankind somehow
evolved from earlier species and
survived the ice-age)

She had the kind of spirit
(looking out of her face)
that filled your heart with wonder
and grace

She had that kind of face that makes
you think of past lives and
how you must have known her before

She had the kind of face that you could survive
a famine or a war for

The kind of face reflecting a spirit you
could wait a lifetime for
and it would make you happy to see her smile

The kind of smile you could survive for
(revive your own bent soul for)

She had that kind of mind that was floating as
freely as a deer galloping across a field

and that deer was not running out of fear,
she was just running

forget about time
it's new again
this now
with-out me

After the fire
before the sunrise
moonrise
(moonrise)

There are stars going out somewhere
(we've left the earth before and it didn't
work out so well)

Be in this place with me stranger
(the attention of a woman is invaluable)
something not to be replaced

(let the fires go out on their own)

Official Launching of the campaign
to sell 1000 poetry books

(it's like selling the eyes of Greek Gods)

Like trying to steal the sword of Achilles

Yet I must

You can't expect
much from this life
after all

(it's a strange world of
promises, vague innuendos
and an ever shifting reality)

It's best to learn to fly like
eagles and
have the disposition of a
broken-hearted
sailor

(yet it's also recommended to secretly
pray to ancient stars that may or may not
exist, let them guide you
home)

And deep in your spirit
know that magic of every kind
is constantly at
play
