Flourishes of Half Dollar Renown
The sole resemblance of chance and need, wont and waiting
freedom, was a struggle in scarlet battles of wine and snakes that shorn
confederate passage allow. He considered the wisdom of promise and pose, able
arts and existence.
The half dollar fell to the concrete and the wind sang, tiny
tempests swirled in the rain tinctured sunshine spears of light. The coin spun
on the edge of a grain of sand as the seconds passed. He saw the design of dust
and the savor of oaths in ash and dew, in sovereign applause and ether, in
affirmed delight and amazing, absolutely amazing taboo. The coin fell still and
random wills sighed in relief as the sun whispered and the world continued to
revolve. He had half dollar renown and a distant love of life.
The eclipse of mystery in omens was a deluge in the life of
Prey Claw. He found the crème in his coffee was curdled yet sweet and allayed
to the harmony of sunshine dawns and wont. A wonder of ascending taste and a
mildly amused rhythm of tender embrace. Prey sanctified the contents of his cup
and swallowed the bidden blood, “Ahhhhhhhhaaaaaahhhhhh.” he whispered in
satisfaction and passage.
The springtide fray he thought in simmering reserve, the
course of maelstroms and the way of weeping rain, he considered the beholden
day and birth in trade with the gentle assay of what is and what has been a
tear in the depth of miracles and myths of coffee care, a sweet and a bitter
barter. He sipped and found respite, reprieve in rages of fortune.
Pray strapped the leather harness across his waist and
shoulders in easy movements of bond. Bond between the gods of chance and the
fates that tell muzzy dreams where to sleep, where to amend the night and the
calm in secret repast. Prey secured his harness to the edge of the cliff and
around the trunk of an enormous weeping willow. The sun whirled immigrant beams
of warmth and stray moted substance of soul. Prey took a final sip of coffee
and in betrothal to the arrangement of wind and sun, teasing mountain balance
and rapt crowns of revelation, secured the poise of his task and he sang as he
absorbed the present.
“Foretell the
blessings
Of daisies and
dandelions
In tempers of rare
wine
And wild adventure, A
Consonance with
salvation.”
The will of god saved Prey that morning and he endured in
courage and sighs, wonder and sensation.
* The rope snapped and a child would amend the faith in Prey,
she would make him whole and in sunshine and rain, she would show him the paths
of harvest saffron.
The naturalness of the gentle blossom was in fine-spun magic
with the seasons of both ash and harvest. A bloom in blushing chagrin with the
accounts of angels and saints, full in sleep and boundaries of frayed glory.
There was a perplexing innocence in the beginnings of reflection and birth,
bearth and gusty meandering sanctity.
It came in sad sorrow of shadow and shade, a departure from
love and animate intimacy. It was a cold proposition in favor of demons and
blackened berserkers, the season in rebuke, the time of parched acquiescence
and discreet dark diversion. It was the bane of passerby, the wane desire of
soliloquies in bone dust, rattle and gossiping devils.
The flower cringed and withered in lieu of passion and sated
cycles and in the miracle that defines the amaranth it found purchase in a new
day as the specter of loves lost and declared diabolic dissolved into the soils
of perdition, passing without further fanfare. A bloom in crowns of possession,
a soul in search of harvest hearth, the amaranth of dark confessions
