I keep my words in secret places
Hold them where they are not seen
I turn away my other faces
That none may see which way they lean

I hide the knots that bind my traces
So no one knows which I untie
Though truth is plain on shown surfaces
Still other truths far deeper lie

I curve the air and cross the silence
My light is hid in shadows yet
I move without apparent guidance
Though cast adrift, my course I set

So none may see the path I follow
I feign anothers shaky line
And cloak my moves with motives hollow
But in the dark hold my design

You'll see me fall, you'll see me rising
You'll see me moving far below
You'll see me do something surprising
But understand? You'll never know.

I am glad....

...that you chose to come here to share-- you had many lovely images and ideas in your poem. I hope you return, this is a great place to stretch.

I think I may have commented twice, realizing I had not changed from 50...errr I clicked quickly but I am not sure it was quick enough wah. But I did vote before, so the 50 won't count..
