rising

If the water serenades me.

Will these branches be enough,

to keep me floating?

Though, they are crippled and worn.


It seems you climb fences,

with a charming ease

Do you have plans

for the aftermath,

of a rusty god beginning to dream


If this water wakes me

will there be new birds,

to break me from slumber.

To keep me above, to keep me

within seams.

I love the line "of a rusty god beginning to dream." Somehow I feel a connection to it.

thanks very much. I thought the same thing, that it was long. I think I just used longer sentences than usual.

Haunting and very pretty. It seems long but it's really not, I think you captured the feeling really well.
