Dedicated to Terry and Shirley Cox
We have walked in
shimmering places
in and both out of this world (and that other)
hand and fingers
deliberate in their embrace
as dragons, fiends and other degenerate souls
face us and are
defied
by the sheer force of willing
Gradually now
i slip
more and evermore
into that other realm
full of thirst
for continual state
in this half-dreaming reality
pain does not live here
neither do you
i must
quit this tired struggle
bow to the understanding
time requires this adventure alone
rediscover and explore
that world of
shimmering places where we have walked
