SCREAMING LIFE by Niki Freer, 9 September 1996
Piercing pools of crystal azure sky
haunting with their solemn stare
feelings and images thrust forth
deep into imaginations last reaches.
Once a flowing, swirling mane of black
with its twists and turns and tangled tresses
tendrils now reduced and straightened
standing on end in halo-like fashion.
Close your eyes and open your mind
the eagle shriek cries out in anguish
switching to a slow, seductive croon that penetrates
a driving force to break even stone hearts.
Angry words of pain and passion
each emotion wrapped in a perfect scheme
speaking for one who he has never met
found my shape and tells the world.
