The Ripples of Change

Folder: 
The Wanderer

Step in Step

You can do no harm

Sultry Blows

Flow and Recess

Toe that smudges

Indelibly unwritten

Bears the ponders

And wears the past


Mysticism some see

Asylum I seek

Natural breach of sense

Cracks invisible mirrors

Quicker the run

Heavier the sinkage

Until I fall untied

Into the solemnity

Author's Notes/Comments: 

A writer on this site actually inspired me to write something with a bit more of a freer structure about something familiar and that I found lovely.

I like what this does to the mind - blink and flick - ready to dive in assuredly. Funny kinda punny. Enjoyed ~slc~
