GHOST SKIES



GHOSTLY   GREY   SKIES
REACH   ABOVE  THE   BADLY   DAMAGED   HORIZON
FRACTURED   SHARDS  OF   BLUE   INDIGO   LIGHT
PEPPER   THE   DARK   DENIM  CANVAS

WILD  FLAMES---UNTAMED
CASCADE  FROM  THE   HEAVENLY   HEAVENS
LIKE   A MADMAN   RECITING   MC BETH

HEAVY  FREE-LOADING  CLOUDS  UN-BURDEN   THEMSELVES
RELEASING  UMBRELLAS  OF  TORRENTIAL   RAIN

TAKING   SHELTER   FROM   THE   STORM
BENEATH   A   WAYWARD   RAILWAY   BRIDGE
I  PLEDGE   MY   LIFE   SAVINGS   TO   YOU

AS   THE   WAVES   UNFOLD
I  DRIFT  SILENTLY   OUT   TO   SEA
