No Fear (potluck)



Stalking darkness
Billowing freight
Angry carpet rolls ‘cross light
Blow and huff
Rant and rage
Flash and roar
Give your best performance
On my field-like stage

I’ll spin and swirl and dance in waves
Of thankful expectation
There is no fear of you in me
I love your demonstration.

Just make sure before you quit and fade away to mist
You share your rain upon my hair and leave me with a kiss

I love the way my golden soul
Contrasts your blackened heart.
And how your evil face of scars
Enables me to grow.
