Heavens Bridge

Posted on June 28, 2013 by skyraftwanderer

Beetle horns collide, unleash forked arcs of heavens power. A wanderer on heavens bridge watches the dipper crash in water vast. Magpie fleets seek the vast star void. From star filled rivers oxen drink. ~~~ Image found here: http://japanhinomaru.blogspot.co.uk/2012/02/mitologia-japonesa.html My … Continue reading →

I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe…

Posted on February 4, 2012 by skyraftwanderer

Birds of flame spiral down from the sky near the Mulberry tree. I watched a bridge of magpies span the depths of the Star River… ~~~ Immortals riding cranes on the edges of Heaven. I watched dragons and whales rage … Continue reading →

I like…

Posted on December 7, 2011 by skyraftwanderer

I like being scruffy. Impeccably scraggly. I know we should all want to look professional and clean but I love it when my jeans are shredded, my T-shirts are multi coloured swirls and my sneakers are ragged. I like my … Continue reading →

Orbs (Poem)

Posted on November 9, 2011 by skyraftwanderer

Auroral orbs trail space locomotives on rusting tracks in stellar chasms pulling along side arcane box cars stunting and twisting looping and spiraling lingering streaks of luminous chalk curve around corrugated hulls. ~~~ Originally part of Celestial Wire (https://skyraft.wordpress.com/2011/11/05/celestial-wire-poems-and-fragments/) but … Continue reading →

Celestial Wire (Poems and Fragments)

Posted on November 5, 2011 by skyraftwanderer

A series of train lines. Stretching to the outer rim. Crossing two star systems. Built before the age of star freighters. Now outdated. Some tracks were shut down, others lost to the incalculable dimensions of space. There’s still one operational … Continue reading →

Light Speed (Poems)

Posted on October 29, 2011 by skyraftwanderer

Bounty Hunter (Fragments)

Posted on October 22, 2011 by skyraftwanderer

The creed (my own creation – to which I adhere): 1) Only catch criminals (Its ethical…ish and nobody really cares if a criminal dies – lack of collateral damage is a good thing.) 2) Only deliver bounties to other criminals … Continue reading →
