the axe head fell into the water

Borrowed things will float
all things are borrowed
for the time of things are needed
then the time is over
and all things float away
and no hand of man can hold them
the power of that which is lifted up
is the gravity that pulls all
the center of time is a tree
it cannot be cut down
and the memory
scars that remain
 the outstretched hand

It burns warm alone

And the shadows cast
is a story of experience
a history that sings a song
from pastures of light
to endless night
a bowl of tobaccos smoke
it rises into the throng

naked soul

You ever slept alone next to the hush of a river?
You ever gazed lonesome at a camp fire?
You ever dance under a cloud of stars?
You ever felt misunderstood by every human being around you? 
You ever walk off into the silence, past all the pretending?
Layer by layer the naked soul,
Disembarks 
Stripped
And no one knows you. 

Onward still...and unknown next 
and again.
