auroras



































































The dancing veil

Gliding, glittering, greens, gracing the blanket sky,

Growing, grafting, grounding the night air, -32 just hue,

The dancing veil covers the sky,

Jupiter and its mooning children are hidden for a brief time,

captured in the misty green veil that flows aloft like smoke in a breeze,

hidden like birds in the trees.


Eternity beckons, earth comes a calling, the telephone rings and the dancing begins,

The shepards sit upon a burning bush, fire rages, earthquakes abandoned,

the sky is alight by the dazzling witch,

who covers the sky in the most translucent mist,

Gathering up her web of decite,

she blinds the mind in veil of kind,


The cold is forgotten, the trumphet blares,

the sound dimishes and the veil declares,

I am the goddess and show my might,

I come here to wander and to take your sight,

I fell in love, captured with awe, for the dancing veil has come once more.

It leaves me gasping, dying for breath, I feel its pull, its shudder its test,

Amorous, lofty, high up above,


This night of shadows and dances alone,

has extended the lease to all of my bones,

we dance when merry and sing out a tune

we love to play in the glare of the moon,

the winter gets deeper, the temperatures drop,

and the dance of the veil will it never stop.


A magnificent dance, a piece of class,

Next to the laws and under the masts,

Above the caslab and around the Piggott,

She dances happily for now and time past.

Footprints

my footprints are my own design,
they trod and squelch all in a line,
a wind that blows, hides the track,
lost am i, no way back.
