BIRD IN FILGHT
Where are you nesting -
You dont come home at night...?
Earlier than dawn
With all your feathers shining bright,
You glide o'er the horizon,
Slip quietly into the day.
Then soon as dusk begins to fall,
Spread out your wings again.
KNOTS
Lots of my feelings
Get caught
In knots.
My head
Hands
Stomach.
Hopes I have hidden
Are crushed
With pain.
My eyes
Lips
laughter
Are sealed.
Trust I have given
Is taken
Away.
My ears
Heart, Soul
Can't cope.
Words which have tightened
A knot
In my mind
Have been spoken too soon,
And are far too unkind.
