And watched through glorious eyes.
To see the beast in midst of feast

‘Till daylight crack. Continue reading “Forest of Life”

Branch above my head.
The simple fact is, I should not.
For in this field where they be got,
The only thoughts permitted are
Those written but not read. Continue reading “Forbidden Fruit”
