that dark angel
standing in the corner
observing the shadows of man 
pass him by -

he has angel eyes

that shine high beam
bright bushfires that light 
the entire transparent 
padded room parade

dance cards lit 
he’s biding...

*** NOMAD ***
(For Ian and Bryan)

The gifts just out of reach…Always?
Scoping the search?  
With the contentments 
Of peace to be found,

Among the ridges
Of the lost caves your eagles 
Scan...

Whatever it takes
I’ll win at these stakes
So, here’s what I’ll do
I’ll be...
