Distant riddles and raging rhymes
   entrapped in knolls of slumber
The whole cascading darkness deep
   much to mention and to number
Lines in lines in lining clouds
   of thought and recollection
within the weaving writhing womb
   that ripples my reflection
Mosaic existences distances
   the dancer from the dance
In trance,I hold a beating heart
   a whirling chart to worlds apart
revolving nowhere but its start
   ...within my hand

Early '90s (I think)

A wordplay poem in the incantation style.I always liked doing these.

If a man has not discovered something he is willing to die for,his life is not worth living.

Martin Luther King,Jr. Detroit,1963

Incanting and Enchanting...
and a poetic pleasure to read aloud..
the cadence and harmonies of your rhyme and word play was a delight!!
Superb write poet sir!

we'll find what we called our sins were just mistakes."
