In Callow Land
Owls screech
Down Fall the Roe
Submission
Into light so bright
Burning without
Moons healing shadow
Press hands
On mercy knees
Smiles spread
On face of He
Return to a place
Secreted in history.
We sense they come.
One sole hangs in the scales
Nought one shoe can do.
Beg Humanity to see
The beauty that surrounds us
In a leaf or a humbler tree?
So, although they silence me
And, cut me deep too
I bleed blue, a blackberry hue
I will come back and take
My land,
That’s promised you.
Your fear too real
Endangering
Life you would steal
I lay down the lavender
To placate, replicate
For You and Its late,
Ones at the gates
Staring lusty eyes search for holes
Greedy to trade the souls
They sayeth devil be blamed
Just Gods on side, and
Under his wing
Opportunists will hide.
Less married women!
Single breeders evil be.
Feed the children you have sown.
Become the Father
It’s your place to own.
Or should be! (If you took responsibility.)
The innocence of soul be free,
Stop taking it for thee.
Filling youths’ heads
With catastrophe
And calamity,
After calamity.
To survive I must desist.
Disappear into the mist.
My love, I leave you
Upon freshly axed logs
Scented of woodland fresh
Surrounded in bluebells
With honey and primrose breath
Where dragonflies flutter
Unwritten but uttered.
The end
