Holding on to the world
But only with one hand.
Face turned away from it,
Looking out and up.
Her mind wanders,
So far that she can't quite grasp reality.
Like a tethered balloon,
She tugs at her string,
Yearning to fly,
Sometimes succeeding.
In this world,
But not quite of it.

Dance Of Life And War
Dance, just keep dancing in the ballad of life. The skies burning in human rage, bullets piercing the bodies of now carcasses. Children crying, mothers dying, and fathers declaring war.
