Purple<\/h3>\n<pre>My soul hurts as it grows\r\nAs into darkness it goes\r\nInto the swirling center everywhere\r\nMy soul shrinks and expands\r\nAt the touch of a hand\r\nAnd terror like lightning allows me to see\r\nSeven animals on a wheel\r\nRolling like balls of steel\r\nAnd the hum of darkness floods the world again\r\n\r\nThe soul hurts as it glows\r\nAnd in darkness it rests\r\nLike a soldier running into certain death\r\nThe soul answers at once\r\nLike the wind to a fan\r\nLike a child who not knowing understands\r\nWhere the sea and the sky meet\r\nIs directly below your feet\r\nAnd the far-off distance\r\nIs your oldest, closest friend\r\n\r\nMy mind is splitting in the landscape of the sun\r\nGoodbye to the rooster, its day is done \r\nI am feeding my chickens on the other side\r\nI am happening in an alternate way\r\nOn a different layer of the Milky Way\r\nAs gingerly as snow falling on cobwebs\r\nLike a crystal-clear dream\r\n\r\nDoes your soul hurt too\r\nWhen it's learning the truth?\r\nDoes it change like the moon\r\nWhen it's leaving the earth?\r\nDoes it rain like a cloud?\r\nDoes it vanish like a sound?\r\nDo you hear it once\r\nAnd hope it can be found\r\nOn a checkerboard\r\nOr wheels rolling forward\r\nUnstoppable\r\nThe rooster crows again\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/pre>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"indentedverse\">\n<h3>Queen Mary<\/h3>\n<pre>I dreamed I cleaned Queen Mary's feet\r\nAnd combed her golden hair\r\nBut it was just a floating dream\r\nNot a puff of air\r\nSunrise tresses castles in the glare\r\n\r\nQueen Mary is a falling star\r\nThe glory of the sky\r\nShe traces down a shining scar\r\nAnd all the people sigh\r\nOh they flutter just like butterflies\r\n\r\nQueen Mary carried me it seems\r\nTo her queenly lair\r\nAnd underneath her royal sheets\r\nI breathed the queenly air\r\nWhen it seemed that someone else was there\r\n\r\nQueen Mary has a happy king\r\nHe jumped into the bed\r\nI heard my love Queen Mary scream\r\nWhen the King kissed me instead\r\nLove for all and all for love she said\r\n\r\n<\/pre>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"indentedverse\">\n<h3>Under the Tarp<\/h3>\n<pre>Do you see her sitting over there \r\nAll alone\r\nAlways in the open air\r\nWith a tarp for when it rains?\r\n\r\nWas she ever a baby? \r\nDid she ever make her mother smile when she spoke?\r\nOr has she always been there\r\nStaring from that bench\r\nWhere she sits day in day out\r\nCertainly she had a mother\r\nEvery soul was born to a mother\r\nBut something, somewhere along the way\r\nSlipped out from under her\r\nAnd left her sitting there on that bench\r\nUnder the tarp\r\n\r\nDo you see her sitting over there\r\nAll alone\r\nAlways in the open air \r\nWith a tarp for when it rains?\r\n\r\nUnder the tarp\r\nA dark, cavernous place\r\nForbidding entry\r\nGrocery bags\r\nConstant pedestrian traffic\r\nThat is where she sleeps\r\nWhere she sits all day long\r\nAll of her possessions stored beneath\r\nSeen by everyone who passes by\r\nAnd on the bench laid out beside her\r\nA few greasy old paperback books\r\nStrewn about on the bench beside her\r\nAre they for sale or simply arranged according to some inscrutable design\r\nNo passerby seems to care to discover\r\n\r\nDo you see her sitting over there\r\nAll alone\r\nAlways in the open air\r\nWith a tarp for when it rains?\r\n\r\nYou walk up to her\r\nI throw a dollar at her feet\r\nToss a dollar at her feet\r\nOnto the paper plate held from the breeze by the weight of a single, shining dime\r\nSingle dime\r\nAnd in reaction she rises lifting the tarp\r\nReleasing a long-trapped odor\r\nThe Sum of All Fears by Tom Clancy\r\nHanding me a book, she says\r\nI thank her\r\nHere, the Sum of All Fears\r\nAnd you read it in your hotel room\r\nThis was the title of the book by Tom Clancy\r\nAnd though it is not the usual kind of thing that you like to read\r\nI thanked her for the book and I found, after reading it\r\nYou find that\r\nThat the sum of all fears is not really \r\nAll that bad\r\n\r\n<\/pre>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"indentedverse\">\n<h3>Your Bird<\/h3>\n<pre>And in your
