orange blossoms

We've been to all of the places that oranges grow. 

Between us, we've seen all there is to share.

I wish to be good to you but I am here and I am gone.

A discipline that does not extend your reach doesn't serve you. Get lanky. Become a wolf. Become a wild frond.

she drinks shadows

She drinks shadows in the long lost land. 

Placed in regions that are old are new again,

she is born a new soul into her own life. 

If she bends for you, know that it is of her own accord. Loyal and bashful in the old ways, she holds the door open as she walks out.

Lightning has been striking here. Beaks and talons follow to its source. 

Crushing it.
