Gold to the eye by Keith D Allison
If I'd only found a destination
someplace for the soul
the heart crumbling
the wetness to the cheek
the pounding of drums
a great day to run
Tragic
the wetness
the fuel to the flames
trying to hold on
to mystery, the butterfly falls into the snow
the heart
on borrowed time
tax man, purity in terror
empty barrels
no more words on the Golden ears
driving too far in the Sun
who stopped the rain

Posted by Gregory O'Neill on 08/13/09 at 12:48 AM "...the butterfly falls into the snow" now that is as stark, yet beautiful a contrast as I've pictured in some time. Great write, Keith. Thanks.
