mind you, rose petal facades
prickle, not tickle
but the beauty of Cherry Blossoms

The Namibean desert wind sometimes blows as far as the heart of Zimbabwe. In one of those days, he noticed a curious and beautifull animal, all yellow, slim, and running as fast as himself. Competition, then great friendship arouse between the two runners. And so it went on for some days, sheer high of free beings. Time to separate came. So their friendship would not be forgotten, the fured runner gave the wind this curious whistle you still hear when some obstacle dares stay in it's way. The wind gave him a hundred eyes spread all over the yellow animals fur, so he would allways see the savana trough them and feel the speed along with him. That's how the cheetah gained the black marks on it's fur.
That is beautiful. I think I'll tell my nieces about it. Would you be a cheetah if you weren't a writer? I would be an elephant:

sinister siblings shards
of glass glowing
campfires
Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green
fanged black faces
drink and shout so loud
their broken voices...
break the silence,
spoils a bid for a night
of ecstasy
Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool

Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green

As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green
calm seas and sky
rolling in
earth raged red
cinders cool black
Fanged demon mine
belches frothing lungs, blood spit
toil, broken bones
break the silence,
spoils a bid for a night

As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
