I tighten my grip on the moment and wince against the force, my thoughts, abrupt and untameable, run riot through reason, and tested and tortured I accelerate towards the first eruption incapable of calm, angry am I and I mean harm my will fragmented I fight to keep control, unpredictable and erratic, I am derived of this beast unleashed on my soul, if reason could conquer I would pray for all incapable of calm, angry am I and I mean harm but limited are the merits of my foe, suddenly departed and in its place hastens despair, curtailed at the brink of destruction I stand bereft and abandoned, the penitent man, angry I was defeated I am.

Sometime when the sun was on the downward side of the day I looked across at mountains, saw the tree line curve and laze away if I could reach across the gap and hang on to the very peaks if I could walk on top of crowns, cradled there from underneath Orange glow and gentle warmth bathed me then from toe to tip into lower pools of red I sank my feet and took a dip diving back towards the shadows needles break my fall I close my eyes and dream, and dream again I'll do it all. 1.3.02
