Bright , pin-sharp cries
Of angel gulls,
Carrying on the winds of time;
Ghosts of past and
Spirits of future …
Echo …
…Echo.
These are the vulnerable blues;
I could have been so dangerous:
Back in the day.
Tides in the sky,
Clouds in the sea;
Which way is up?
Waves in the desert.
Half-way down April’s decision-river –
My darling-dancer’s coming home today –
But I won’t be there,
And I won’t be coming back.
Echo …
… Echo.
These are dangerous blues:
I am so vulnerable
Today.

I feel the vulnerability.
First of all… Why didn’t this come up on my reader? Im really getting upset that it messes up my news!
In regards to the poem itself… It sucks you in, absolutely. Echo echo.. The opposites of “i could have been so dangerous” and “vulnerable” in the end really speaks to me…
Well done!
