ABOUT
THE AUTHOR
A twenty-something jack-of-all-trades that has simple been exploring the craft of writing for longer than he can remember. Whilst humour is a fickle mistress that comes and goes, he must admit that tragedy and romance consume the bulk of his creative efforts.

Birds
Gregory Novak
I watch'd your lips carress the glass,
your tongue address the wine,
and dreamt that whilst your hand touch'd his
your heart might still be mine;
softly smiling as I turn'd
to pay my host no mind,
and rais'd my eye instead
toward the one I left behind;
freely would the drink then flow
as music fill'd the room,
and wonder if what draw me close
would sooner spell my doom;
I've seen the rise and fall of men
that crawl unto your smile,
and tell myself their weak refrains
have nothing on my style;
and so it is with confidence
that's shaken more than stirr'd,
I try my luck with Lady Jay
and cage the fearless bird;
whilst all night she scarcely seem'd
to utter men a sound,
the songs she sung for me at home
with velvet lace were bound;
no sooner had I thank'd the stars
and prais'd the moonlit night,
when waking did I turn to see
my bird had taken flight;
and so it is I lie in bed
and conjur up these words
the fools that oft we men become
when chasing after birds.
