Hide

by Jim Wisneski

Precious touch like a drizzle of rain running down my arm. A kicked wind more like a breeze they say. There’s greatness in destruction just adjust you granted eyes. Lead to the gallows! Watch the spirit fly away! A flock moves south they are silent. . . The large moves so solemn So impossible to know. They reach up – all reach up. They sing away Be safe they say Where the mountains rise is where the sun the black the wind hides.

Love your words, Jim. The hard times come no matter what:
"There’s greatness in destruction
just adjust you granted eyes.
Lead to the gallows!
Watch the spirit fly away!"

But there is always hope, if we just have faith:
"A flock moves south
they are silent. . .
The large moves so solemn
So impossible to know.
They reach up –
all reach up."
