TIME OF THE FALLING FEATHERS Part 2

ELUSIVE DREAMS
L.A. Maihi 2010
A feather of white fell into the mist/upon the earth a bloody fist/ a scream of pain of wretched gaze/fell upon the dripping maze/the raptors were spent the fight had fled/the body was broken the carcass was bled/death lay strewn without a care/death lay dying naked and bare/the pad of feet broke through the light/a child released to appease the fight/all eyes were focused on the prey/all beaks were sharpened ready to play/a child no more a child no less/a child of heart walked in this mess....

the day had dawned a twilight sun/where all things began to become undone/the birds were resting heavy in sin/when the child of light began to spin/she spun a web of feather down where light spun off upon the ground/upon the ground where blood did flow/upon the ground of dying foe/the web that wound around and bound/encased the dying on the ground/the light of Io lit up the sky/with feathers to wings and wings to fly/the warp and weave of life on edge/was teetering over off the ledge....
