Pegasus



Paused in the sky for only that moment

Bleeding and on fire

I was losing my grip of Pegasus reins

When I asked who I was to you


The spinning wheel never fails

Tireless weaving threads in cosmic soup

My hands forever scarred

By human limitations of heart and mind


I am not Athena

Nor child awaiting Myth's Awakening

Post counsel and calculations

Before fire ritual


My five-year-old self caught me

Carrying a Monarch in each hand

Respecting the space of man

While sleeping gently through the night


Dreams tell me truth

Trust tangible syllables, flavor, pain

Colored in empty boxes in spaces

Where Time never lies
