recapturing raspy raptures
riding to work upon an omnibus bus
donating emotions worn and
used still visibly revealing the
escutcheoen on the armors tag
everyone thought this paladin was more
like a jester juggling dreams
with jagged edges slicing through lead
sketched gloves
leaking smiles
spreading through dioramas of laughs
bursting like bubbles in a
mild luminous breeze
on a begining
winter brunch
feeding starving third cousin emotions
with acceptance served on recycled
emerald shattered plates donning
stainedglass crosses
animadversions
plated in hallow transparent courage's
gusts sweep saltysmiled clouded
floors grouted with lushious
entombed lust linking
cushioned chains
still.....
all eyes danced around the drab backgound
fixing stares of acidwashed
tapestries flirting with the Robin Hood
wind stealing attention from
the hired-hand
entertainment
have you ever felt out of place???
like this wasn't the destined
lifestyle you had envisioned
as a child in Heaven's Grace
as you slip on a pebble
during the swallowing
the sword
finale
