Reflections

Those silvered reflections of you

still exist, strands of spidered silk

woven and so delicately knotted

tracing my veins, footpaths edged

beside the crimson rivers, blood

bound and fluid, still guided

by the high wire touch of you

imperceptable tightropes

where once you walked

Wow, really great! The whole perspective of it is amazing. That's kind of what we aim to do isn't it? -To turn things around and round til we see different aspects of life, different ways of explaining and expressing ourselves and our lives. I especially liked:
