The Gale


I was the bird and you the gale,

Flap as I may I always needed you,

You could dash me to the ground too,

And you have time and time again.

Maybe to remind me my wings

Are only as good as the air

You place beneath them,

I’m not free

You could take the sky from me.

– Vagabond Prophet

Water Wind Fire

Strongest things are shapeless,

Water

Wind

Fire.

You’ve given me shape.

Though filled with water,

Though driven by wind,

Though captivated by fire.

You’ve given formless things form

Inside this full formed man,

You gave this full formed man

Strength in things formless.

– Vagabond Prophet
