Iconic October

recycles images of comfort

 

via

via

via

and
 
anticipation.

via

But silhouettes of fear

via

 

hover over our

imaginations.

So what if 

in spite of

the crow's image

he was really a

song bird

via

 

a gentle friend

via

 or 

simply had 

the intense and irresistible desire

 to reveal his true self?

via pinterest

from other peoples' perception of you

is like

slicing through

heaven

where every ray of the spectrum

falls 

on glimmering wing tips

hurling

every doubting shadow to 

earth

via

under cracking fallen leaves

  

while you

bat your wings 

and

show 'em 

who you really are.
