Zephyr Trinkets
By Alchemist
Feed you fools on the excess of shadows
Use
your tools on their inadequate frame
Sing your tune
to the weeping of willows
Your knife prunes the garden
of the game
Whether under sovereign sun or melancholy
moon
Gathering clouds and aligning stars are but souvenirs
Orchestrated by the oracle's omnipotent origami

To me it sounded like with this you were pulling down the carefully constructed world of astrology and superstition. I don't know if that was your idea. Great write, I'll be checking out your others too.

...I also liked 'melon collie moon'. it's a trinket in itself, an eye-catcher. you should restore it to your original...

I thoroughly enjoyed this, especially the melon collie moons. I knew a girl like that once, in the back seat, real puppies by the light of the moon - but I digress. The somber tone of this speaks to a dour future, sad to say, thanks Shawn.

I spelled meloncholy like that because I had always seen it spelled mellon collie on the Smashing Pumpkins cd cover. I fixed it but I'm not sure if it is completely wrong the other way, any insight on the spelling would be helpful.
