Welcome

Welcome to my
Abstraction
Frequent of its
Separation
Thank you; thank you - dab the wounds
How many times must I bleed?
Pale moon floating river stars on crimson paper cranes
And I'm wishing deep in winter ice for kissing summer rain
Tell me, must I weep for death and find the midnight dream
Reaching for the zenith light and slipping on the sheen
It's not so hard to drown here in amongst the stems and flowers
Sleeping against a shattered visage everyday for half an hour
I find my sparkles scatter in the wind and river streams
I'm closer to the pale moon than it usually seems
Welcome to my
Abstraction
Frequent of its
Separation
Thank you; thank you - dab the wounds
How many times must I bleed?
Now hear me make my feeble grasps reuniting with my breath
My fortune's made of wishing bone's and shelled-silvered-oak-chests
Answer my rasping stutter for the truth is hard to say
I'm hoping that I come to terms with bleeding everyday
So welcome; welcome to my minds own central imagination
You must tell me when I start to cry - and tell me with elation
I want my pale moon floating river stars on crimson paper cranes
And I'm wishing deep in winter ice for kissing summer rain
Tell me, must I weep for death and find the midnight dream
Reaching for the zenith light and slipping on the sheen
Welcome to my
Abstraction
Frequent of its
Separation
Thank you; thank you - dab the wounds
How many times must I bleed?
