coming for those poisoned
by the lies of fools

softly on the breeze
keeping an open heart
takes a good bit of
hope and faith when
one’s innocence has
been regarded as
nothing by powerful
users promising the moon

from epic times when just plain Jane won’t do

the tide
sweeps the strand
reclaiming beached remnants
