To live as an artist,
but die as a man

a resting black swan

Its flight to perdition

Carrying your heart
Inside my pocket
I traveled the world
Searching for love

That last book
That next book
That other book

beyond the assassin's grasp

—verse to fly between the bars

or a Pen still to burn

Feelings held hostage
Locked unopposed
