Bitter Spring
1. This spring is slidinginto squallthat mackerel skyI drew last nighthas puffed its cloudswith rainthe shadows creepingfrom the wall& I am cold & overdoneagain. 2. Silver night, new moon hollowbull frog barks deep throatowl flight moves towardsinvisible.Dreams have caught me intheir web of splendouras night compels escape& I am on the run once more. 3. You promise me nothingI am overjoyed:you live in your bubble& overly cry out for me: You know it was meant& somewhere deepinside we are tiedacross the mighty ocean beneath the turquoise seasI believeI believeyou’ll reach out for me.
