Fool

Beyond the Realm of Wishes

...Beyond the Realm of Wishes
In sun-scorched dunes 
beside a weathered sentinel

a genie unbound....

Gleaming Sphere Reap the Whirl

Wind lowers it's head-stream, earthbound, 
battle helmet of direction-secured.

Sunrise Over Sodom

...A steel sky, wan and dull, littered

The Song of the Caged Bird

...When the caged bird sings
It tells of her story
