Falcon's Nest

Bard of the shattering stars 
Heaven was a restless mezzanine 
And I was robbing daylight in a frenzy
Remembering the people that had forgotten me  
Sleeping beauty on a bed of blooming thorns
The moon was wounded like me 
Metamorphosis—I would burn 
In the grandeur of fire 
Desire was my coffin 
We were dragged into acres of Heaven
By cherubim 
The verdicts of mirrors was a minefield 
Diamond cutting morning light 
We were Wounded in the god-tomb of life
A feasting falcon’s nest 
Aching autumn was no birthright 
And I feared we wouldn’t arrive
