Fallow 31

The storm has rolled in
Scent of a star on the air
Taking me way back

To a home once known
And early morning fox feet
Knocking for cribbage

Wind in the willows
And secrets kept at cost
But kept all the same

For long shots taken
And fists clenched even after
For love breaking death

At least breaking hell
Shattering all if need be
That fires are quenched

Or at least shifted
How can any fall away
Without this same rage?

Is love such terror
That fearful cast it away
When death's threshold's crossed?

If I am fearless
It's because I cannot see
eep without her (them).
