Shaking out the Down
“I am a feather for each wind that blows.” William Shakespeare :: Look up, the sky’s a fluffered songof promise. A float of hope. Let’s make ourselves a small and quiet place to gather these loose quills caught. **Cue the lightning.** On second thought, let’s not. … Continue reading

A maelstrom stirs in her chest,poorly born concave shell. Damn, but this land’s a swung (sprung) place to watch lightning fingers jigsaw the sky. ::Quickly, day 25.
