Do you hear my heart?
In the chest you beat against?
This heart beats for you.
"It's his voice!" I choked,
shocked at his first cry - at this,
a new tongue speaking.
The alien-faced,
squirming, silver ghost of you
I already love.
I didn't believe
it would be quite so easy
to love you. But yes.
Griffin we named you,
and so roar. Have adventures.
Be your own monster.

There's an alchemy
in the dying of the light,
deadly as poems.
"Do you remember
the way back?" the cat asked her.
She began to cry.
The first shot kills him.
The second is to make sure.
Outside, the sun shines.
A horn blows three times.
A chill wind howls from the north.
Winter is coming.
Arrow, black arrow
enemies of true metal
need killing. Fly true.
Your death approacheth,
enemies of true metal!
Deadly, deadly death!
I love you, baby.
You're the only one for me.
You, and your sister.
She left me crying,
I'm so blue. Luckily I
know her sister, too.
I live by numbers
but watch the skies anyway
for flying saucers.
I live by numbers,
but pause by toadstool circles
in case of fairies.
There was a small chance
the entire Earth would catch fire.
But they went ahead.
how many more times

The flash of your face
as you turn away for good;
a leaf in the wind.
