she was a mistress of some eastern horizon
that damp eyed whisperer always illusive
just at the tip of the tongue nameless

but she would laugh at the metal sounds
that old bones in leather made at dawn
when the ink of generations was tauten

tempted to be but a sail catching dreams
with the sieve of momentary holding fingers
at widest gap like the wishbone man's straddle

she promised never to look back into his eyes
if he would promise never to remember hers
and how her kiss was the new day's sigeh

but an arrow of empty to adam's rib of whim

daark (owgish) 101 east then 10 east to old 66 south with the berdoo crew...sigeh is a shiite term for temporary marriage from a few minutes to 99 years...

Oh, this gives the feeling of a ride that accelerates the heartbeat. I am deeply fascinated by your visions.

Again I would have to quote the whole poem, for it is quite simply perfect.


Love,
Margherita

Decipehering you is like working a Rubik's Cube.
Fun, yet frustrating, but exhilirating mental gymnastics.

VERY interesting 'write'!

I am especially fond of:

"she was a mistress of some eastern horizon
that damp eyed whisperer always illusive
just at the tip of the tongue nameless

but she would laugh at the metal sounds
that old bones in leather made at dawn
when the ink of generations was tauten

tempted to be but a sail catching dreams"...

REALLY great stuff!

sustained applause for this 'penning' !!
