Up you go
to the scaffold of my shoulders,
where the sea-breeze robes
your face & binds
your eyes like solder.
Swinging low
in the cradle of my elbow,
where my warm breath guides
your growth & shields
your eyes from the hungry wolves.
Little dream swaddled like a child:
if we're forever roving, rived
against the grain,
may there be, then, an open door,
a breathing fire, and dear companions
even the smallest
life can't do without.
