Corsican

Damaso

Stormy night.
He runs free, wild
like a black Corsican, a goat.
His weightless thirst
tries again.
His voice cracks,
it doesn't happen.
I'll always run.
Blinders on my dreams,
the corner that saw everything
from time.

The edge of "step by step"
I never unsheathe.

A shark's fin
cut off for pure pleasure.

        A most interesting read with multiple metaphors. I liked the line (Blinders on my dreams)

          Many blinders on peoples dreams, some have no control over these blinders. They attack and control from within building barriers and destroying progress in the persons effort to find a restful inner peace, well expressed write
