runaway shaman

the world revolving around you

never came near me until you broke away;

a contrast of time and space enveloped my demeanour

you were there in my smoking vision

through the fog sending a ship away in a bottle with a message

who is this about

you ask

while i fade away into the tintinnabulations of the sacred oracle

this is about me

you,

the world, anyone who will listen

says the willowing muse who is not me but carries my essence

you question it

but never find a way to disprove my ethereal theories

walking away in a cloud of

sweet smelling mist

you turn back to utter a last curse that is simultaneously

a love sonnet

and shoot the inevitable arrow into my burning soul
