listen with my eyes
By andybyers
02 October 2007
crosstalk
by the trees
she wants me to know she's thought of me
her words detach and float to the ground,
    the blazing summer in which they blossomed over

i listen with my eyes
gazing up into the sticks that rake the sky
infect the clouds with pus to fall as snow at my feet
    when she is safe and warm in some far
        elsewhere
the wind stirs it all,
    leaves and words and marionettes

I am definatley liking this, the imagery is beautiful.....the reference to 'pus' is stark and jolting =)
