Shooting Star

I am a shooting star
with scallop wings
I feast on merriment
and follow the heavens
with a stone clad eye

I wallow through the miers
in fields of bracken brown
I halo my name
amongst the others crowned


With fallow eyes
nostrums crawl
Tidy and neat
with a red gaze
standing on dank stone
amongst the girdle of past hope
