The Fall...The Fall

Bedo

Adrift I

In manic wings

Of

Times well flown eye

Not myself

I mean

But thee

Camel perched

On knee

Of song masters

Practised or

Guardians conditioned

At the door

To teach or lead

Where parched winds call

Or forests bleed

Where all beasts

Fall

Know that my wild harp

Echoes thee

Thy whispered wind

In Cypress tree

A song so sharp

A dance so keen

As dust in mnds

Of sunset seen

Utter on

Oh Son of Sight

Tell us what

Is wrong or

Right

But then you must

Fast

Tell us more

About the truth

What went before

About the valleys

River red

Where foolish died

And smiling bled

Tell to us

The tales of old

Of battle on

The common wold

Where nice was made the prey to day

And forest glade

Held hunger sway

And worlds were placed

In bowls of bone

And what hope sought

Cut to the hone

And all knew fang

Would seek the blood

And love was truth

Misunderstood

then

Bring a butterfly

To

Me

A tender symbol of

The tea

We drink from cups

Of sympathy

Where bitter is

The rancour of

The hate that took

The place of love

I

Foolish sit

On sunset hill

Await the time

When brothers will

Acknowledge daughters

Soft and sweet

And eager sons

Sit at theirs feet

And they can teach

The meaning of

The

Seasons run

Creations love

Sirius

Forgive

This simple Bedo

I try

Perhaps one day

I will learn to express myself

Perhaps not

Til then

I

Cry
