The Tiger And The Fire

Fire in a field
Tiger in the grass
Blue dress | black hair,
Denim eyes | tattooed ass
So many shadows
So many so similar
So many ohias and albizias
Gypsy feathers
And dandelion seeds
All so much dust
All so much wind
Neither more than moments
Neither more than memories

But they wanted it that way
They wanted it that way.

Poetry by E.S. Wynn
