===================================
Version 1
A song of anticipation follows
black-leather footsteps
Seconded by the pitter-pattering
of a fist-sized machine
I am jailed by your memory
These bars of sunlight
& walls of sunset smoke
Even in time, as each broken-hearted
fragment of elemental disposure
Configures into sympathic visions
melting to memories
Pictures hanged by cherry wood frames
and dry silk onto the walls
It embeds albums of time and
glossed fractures of torn destinies
In this cage, I spin into a coffin
and break away to glass
I, a restless bird, yearning for freedom
from the chains of tyranny
In this momentum, I confide,
in which I could never understand
Love travels in a cycle of mirage-fogged aura
It’s when the eyes of nightingales
rise onto angel wings
And the ink they write it on
Has just no story to tell
In riddle, I explain these contritions
in fallen tears of memories
But what is never to be occurred
from the sins you’ve planted
Tell why I’m alive.......
=================
Version 2
A song of anticipation follows
black leather footsteps
seconded by the pitter pattering
of a fist-sized machine.
I am jailed by your memory, these bars of sunlight
and walls of scented smoke
and brown wood where picture frames of evening coffee stains
and cherry lip gloss rent spacesat the back of my head.
Eventually the present becomes a cage,
I, a restless bird fearing flight
and longing instead to return
and rest in the warm embraces of your shell.
