Image: To Fend for Oneself
ditched in the middle
of nowhere
not wanting to make light
of rumours garnered through
the grape-vine
what happened?
nothing was
more frustrating than to
hear tell the truth

knowing one's freedom is a potent ally
more frustrating than to
hear tell the truth
Image: Looking Down on Others
the might of the flight hungry
free to scour the Universe
not to be seared at the seams
not to be seared at the seams
but still rarely being held back
from roaming up high
knowing one's freedom is a potent ally
not to anticipate but gathering
one's strength through the storm

I like the unexpected turn of phrase here, Hank.
There is strength to be found in the storm--thank goodness!
