husky bristle of the wind
through arms
of the silver bitch
grasping the breath
of spring kissing
summer
the lark and nightingale sing
and the leper in the lurch
slip like grains of sand
through jaundiced
fingers
pollen
golden
and floating
toward the sands
of time.

i wanted the leper in the church.. lolololol how i read it first time round, but read this a few times to get the whole feel of it..
it's gritty and itchy, almost that kind of unbearable itch that you can't scratch, just like you can't scratch away time...
sand in the eyes and crevices..
towards the end..............
love it....
