From the Pen: Hidden Streams

Gentle Death, 
Simple Life, 
What is Love to thee?

Awful Grave,
Wonderous Song, 
all have come to me.

Who can sleep in earthen bed
and swim among the stars?
Who can know what's in his head?
escape his story's bars?

I walked along a desert path
and drank from hidden streams;
and under noon's voracious wrath, 
I stood the sun's relentless beams. 

So, I just replaced the ink in my fountain pen, and I jotted this off.
