Singing Like A Bird
Words Taking Form
***
The sweetest chords of seduction
fall like salvation from her lips
A serpent born of Eden
her legs wrapped round my hips
Parallel expectations
matching each step that I make
A timeless dance of syncopation
true desire to partake
A shrike sings the capers
of my lover and I
Headlined in the newspaper
to be one till I die
To the heavens above
I swear, never to waver
She is the pinnacle of love
and my stricken hearts savior

When Powers of Sun Magnified
After childhood years spent listening to these stories at the feet of Nana Belle, great aunts and great uncles, this part (my part) became both easy and hard. Easy when you grow up to become a writer. Hard knowing the oral traditions steeped in a history vast enough to eclipse the oldest mariner’s voyage are in danger of being lost simply because no one sits still to listen anymore.
