Grains of dreams carried by infinity, suspended in...

Two old men. That’s all; not much to look at.
Their frail, broken shadows shrunk against the sunny morning
Brightness slowly searching its way through gnarled branches

Where stars dance their stories in silence,

In the name of egalitarian...

Quiet hung in yellow golden windows lit
So silent in the dales and woods blanket
The dog fox cry echoed...

when you went 
away

without word or a...

roost together in sinister rookeries at night,
wrapped in black mantles
hanging upside down, gossiping.

Sublime detached observer of success
Making its own life and time
Swallowing in one long yawn all the glories
Keen scented existence and sanctified its rewards
