Mystery

I wonder where our words take us
the spoken and unspoken
in bitter arguments, in love letters
in dreams

Do they carry us, on their wings
to far-away lands
where we are bound to wake up
bruised and ignorant

Or are we their masters
Us, the hawks that carry them
hanging from our talons
skinless words
bleeding
starlit words
...
I wonder where this blue day
will take me
my body and soul
all one chilled thing
I wonder
...
