Chapter 52: Feathers and Lightning - The Mind Wanderers Handbook

 

52: Feathers and Lightning 

Only 

In the 

Deep 

Deep

Of the night

The ruddy angel

Stands 

In my doorway 

I hope 

Our 

Flight 

Might not 

Let me drown

You

Thought 

You were 

The only one 

Who could fly

Thought 

You were 

Waiting 

To see 

How long 

I 

Could hold 

My breath 

I 

Could 

Squander 

My gifts 

Feathers 

And lightning 

Hapless 

Babe 

Falling 

Fast

Hindsight 

Holding on

To 

You
