Written by Tansy Gunnar
Plucked from the wind.
To be caged,
Drained,
Tamed,
Lamed,
And blamed.
Wanting to fall,
But not on her face,
Instead, with grace.
By using her wings to glide,
And her heart as a guide,
Towards where fated love collides.
Both ready…
Clanking metal and shields,
Axes and swords swinging steady.
Bloodied, in fields of fire,
With desire–
To conquer battle,
Unrattled…
They conspire.
Rising, taking flight,
Soaring love,
Above,
The chaos below,
For they know…
Where and why it all began.
Perhaps it’s time they ran.
Bludgeoning towards each other,
Eliminating all enemies.
Meeting under mounds of zombie corpses slain.
On that day…
Something blossomed, a
Creative synergy, a
Blending of energy, a
Creative harmony,
Amongst the debris,
All they overcame with individual solidarity,
Became strings in loves’ tapestry.
