    I don't want to
    I'm in love with The Vinegar Man and Mr. Tanner, but be careful, it could just as easily be you.

    as a general again?

    Child's laughter...
    as carefree
    as a
    river's burble.

    two or three words
    can shatter love
    utterly

    Tiny pansy faces
    follow the sun
    to evening.

    warmed skin,
    bleary eyed,
    lazy glow.
    content me.

    In the rising heat,
    I languish,
    motionless,
    expectant.

    A burden
    off my shoulders.
    I feel free.
    O schaurig ists übers Moor zu gehn,
    wenn es wimmelt vom Heiderauche,
    sich wie Phantome die Dünste drehn
    und die Ranke häkelt am Strauche.

    Blue water.
    Green forest.
    Let the gods decide.
