Analysis of GHOST SKIES
GHOSTLY GREY SKIES
REACH ABOVE THE BADLY DAMAGED HORIZON
FRACTURED SHARDS OF BLUE INDIGO LIGHT
PEPPER THE DARK DENIM CANVAS
WILD FLAMES---UNTAMED
CASCADE FROM THE HEAVENLY HEAVENS
LIKE A MADMAN RECITING MC BETH
HEAVY FREE-LOADING CLOUDS UN-BURDEN THEMSELVES
RELEASING UMBRELLAS OF TORRENTIAL RAIN
TAKING SHELTER FROM THE STORM
BENEATH A WAYWARD RAILWAY BRIDGE
I PLEDGE MY LIFE SAVINGS TO YOU
AS THE WAVES UNFOLD
I DRIFT SILENTLY OUT TO SEA
