|
|
<p>just the right size to hold up against your chest<br />
|
|
dim in the darkest part of the night<br />
|
|
watching the shadows of the tree branches sway<br />
|
|
as beyond the veil they twist and turn and play</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>your fingertips brush my wings absentmindedly<br />
|
|
sitting on the couch, alone but together<br />
|
|
feather after feather after feather</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>and you and I fight<br />
|
|
tussling, disjointed wings wrapping around everywhere<br />
|
|
a flash of fabric- I'm zipped into a bag<br />
|
|
for a split second before I disappear and reappear elsewhere</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>I sit alone on a stool<br />
|
|
staring out the dining room window at midnight<br />
|
|
human form, human eyes, human mind<br />
|
|
who is this person who's discarded their light?</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>there still remains a certain radiance to my skin<br />
|
|
divine spirit rendered flesh, after all<br />
|
|
but there remains an unsettling sense in that<br />
|
|
one friend can take yet so many faces<br />
|
|
how far one deity can fall!</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>you love me no matter what form I take<br />
|
|
hanging in the air, caught in a tree<br />
|
|
a light in the darkness<br />
|
|
a warmth in the cold<br />
|
|
a heft when all gravity is gone</p>
