The magpie
was swooping...
These old legs don't stand like they used to
Their strength is gone...
In the profound seas
I look for a part of me...
The devil in sheep clothing
In its transmutation...
I feel it nearing.
It is over-powering...
Excuse my form, structure, and words
Sanctuary is all I seek...
You think you know what I'm about
Who I am...
As a little girl I felt like an outsider
I didn't belong...
Oh flower in us your scent, sweet love.
Let our roots enroot, deep into your soul...
It's been too long
Since I've drowned a screen...
Man in the wilderness
shouting "I am!"...
I am alive.
a bright orange, sweet...
