haiku II

by Crow...pisces - Not entered

watching my brother
sleeping - soft golden lashes
shelter angel eyes

behind them somewhere
swim pretty dreams i can't see -
i am not in them

jealous, i shake him
to wake him - he moans and throws
an arm over me

defeated i sleep
my tearful anger calmed - at
least till tomorrow

Reason for writing:

    i cannot remember the spell which as a child i spoke to draw the mists of imagination down around me - i find it both fascinating and infuriating to watch children play, knowing i can no longer reach that magick isle from my shore.
