layers of time
looking into the sky
it was first dark
& stark
then
now you see light
now you don't
loud, thunder shouts
but rain, somewhere
in the great hide-outs
by now
more than half-an-hour
has gone
wind strong
looks like
it's going to storm
somewhere higher up
a beam of light
shines, like a spotlight
two little birds
lean against each other
close & tight
one with eyes open
one with eyes closed
both frightened? I suppose
another half-an-hour
will soon
be gone
winds throng
still looks like
it's going to storm...
here
in my studio
ideas pour...
