Transformation

When you take baby steps, sometimes you hit your head on the corner of a coffee table.

Eagle Dream

A giant Eagle soared out of the sky.  I was in awe of its size, beauty and ability to soar so slowly and low to the ground.  It was so near me that I could touch it.  He soared to my left, stopped in mid air then turned to face right in front of me.  He then turned up at a 45 degree angle and instantly his body turned to bones; the wings remained intact.   He was frozen there in the air.  I stared at his corpse more saddened than horrified.  His beauty had disappeared in an instant.

Error

The error you make
When bowing down
Is forgetting to look up
And smile.

Master may not see it
With his shoe on your mouth
But a grin will certainly
Gleam through your eyes!

Breath heavy on the sole
And your master will certainly slip.
For the dew of your breath
Is a powerful potion
As slick as any lotion;
It will knock him down,
Break his hip.

I laugh, for now, with you
My overseer.
For I will oversee
You in turn.
That will be the day
You begin to learn.

I kiss you on the hand,
My slavemaster.
For I love you
My brother.
