Pellet

Owl on my rung
Twitching sharp in the wind
Distracted by red embers
Blowing through dust below
Twisting in crowds

I am mute
Two bright eyes glinting
Knives sharpened to strike
I breeze through the door
Falling silently to one

Out into the night
Ruffled and ready on wing
One thousand senses alive
Every moment in a flash
Captured, torn, discarded

My path flayed in fire
No turning back now
No turning at all
I am coming
You won't hear

Set fire

Took it up, put it up
Folded left over right
Made it simple
Made you cry

Picked it up, shook it up
Broke life open wide
Found the answers
Found your sigh

Touched you up, got you up
Tore your heart on mine
Felt you dreaming
Felt you right

Built it up, lit it up
Smoked in desert eyes
Watched all tender
Watched the night

Journey

Cannot paint
Sunlight through trees
Gold in the gutter
Desert patterned black
Pacing tiger
Caught in wind
Beat on my eye

Cannot find
Countless road faces
Quick as dreams
Forever watching
Dark sparks blind
Patient life
All here now

Cannot be
Everywhere but I am
Mountains levelled
Tumbled into one
Clean timeless vision
Travelled long
Still moving on
