bleeder Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 Here's one from my collection. You can view more of my works at my webpage. THE PRICE OF SOULS If we could buy enough Just enough for this silent world Would that be sufficient Of the stakes we've left unfurled? The red moon rises Magentas of the night in dreams Ghouls ride these trees I see them fly without wings An owl perches himself Onto a branch of a thousand failures Staring into the eyes of this night His situation has turned precarious She lands herself onto the ground Head of a lion and body of a woman Holding death in her hands Life seeps through unproven She told me if we could buy enough Just enough for this faded world It will tell a tale so bright and wrong When truths will lie and lies will curl In the recesses of this night She kisses my wounds of old Her sighs brought on a million visions A million stories left to be told Link to comment
