featherless flights




there's a stream below nomadic tree
it's a place that i love
where the ancient gift of silent listening
flows freely.
if you listen carefully
you will find me in my tree
if you listen carefully
you will hear the songs i sing.
inside stationary movements
sits a box upon the hill
and inside she locks her secrets
and damnation's of free will.
