Dear Mr. Distance,
I have a soul across your seas.
When she shall set out
...
I lent my heart to the finest breeze,
Sat my soul upon the stillness of its
wings,
And wandered far and wide-
...
The compact city of bustling calm
where colours of diverse cultures and ancient tribe
tread to form the rainbow that festooned her roof
...
Before the fete of my birth,
life forced it's fiendish fingers
into my feline eyes
and stud my light with
...
Smokes rises from our yards
Yet our yawns stretches for miles
I have seen barns erected
But were brim-filled with naught
...
