drifter
burned parchment skin
under rust color skies
cobwebs collect dust
in the corners of my mind
woven thoughts made of dreams
drifter of the universe
looking for an anchor
in your serendipitous sand
while it shifts under foot
the world sways
in time with music
sung in verse
written in the stars
each syllable
keeps time with our heartbeat
the flow is warm now
comfort to the weary
close your eyes
hear the operatic ballet
as it plays it's lonely song
sung from each heart
a concerto of the free
I'm a seeker, a seer
diviner of truth
scry in the tempest storm
foretell what is to come
fade to black
the mist is thick now
too many voices
vie to be heard
hush child and wait
all will be revealed in time

enchanting verses, Crim,
that foretell a herald of wonder.
where the wind blows, the drifter goes...

Ah, there is the rare spiritual and magical side shown once again. A hauntingly divine piece as ever, as though a terrible mirage and unforgettable portent. This part is my favourite:
"woven thoughts made of dreams
drifter of the universe
looking for an anchor
in your serendipitous sand
while it shifts under foot"
Makes me long to jump on a sand skiff and go on an adventure to find such a pictured place.
