which steal my catwalk
and uncover the earth
into abyss of ages
have you heard of the rains outside?
believe me it is raining
it is whimpering
it is weeping
in abyss of ages
in roads called history
in by lanes of boot leggers
their children, sour wine
that is why I love silences
allowing me to weep and laugh
all at the same time
punctuated by gripping stories
of man's fall, history and his prescience
All at once I love silences, whispering
and then baying for blood.
