Tranquil Bridge

25 Sep 2008

·J. Maw

O Bride of rust, you've lost your frame I even doubt what was your name Silent masonry seems so still and brickwork laid with mossy fill O stream below do you know? I guess your flow is def 'ly no. It's quiet here, I know, at first creaking symphony rehearsed. but underneath the tranquil speaks, a chaos governs, moist soil reeks, the wind is soft, a gentle hand, noiseless caress, a charming reprimand. Like an alarming facade I chase my inner demons molesting face; I can never leave the sun-lit forest lace, for all I need is someone to take my place. "Always Forever . . . Art Freaks . . ." - the 'AF' CREW xum4 (what you see in quotations was inscribed on the bridge)
