Thursdays Child Was Full Of Soul

[A Catatonic Simian]

We turned in the dark
on our own axis.
Look at you!!!!
Little Miss Beautiful,
shining eyes,
and the drumbeat of MY heart
just from knowing you.

They moved around us but
we filled bigger spaces
with the joy of our liberation.
There could never be enough wild horses
in this city
to pull us from the glue
that had waited so long
to set us together.

I knew, without looking
that everything that led us here was
right there.
In the shapes we cast from that spotlight
that touched upon us.
To the angels that leapt from our
mouth at every kiss.


Then,
walking the streets we
cut our own path
with the blades that circumstance never
allows us to show.
Your hand finding mine,
and me, never comfortable with that
except with you.

We hid from the hours that want to
seperate us.
Sitting in a pub, table at the very back,
daring it to find us.
We link together as we speak,
a subconcious cross shape
that might scare anything trying to suck the blood
from the heart of our new discovery.

And we left the city
carrying much more than we
arrived with.

This bit, specially the italicised line, makes my heart beat that bit faster every time I read this.

Fucken lovely poem, and a fantastic reminder of the way things should be, all the time
