october's juniper has
fallen, measured, down to me,
a swirl's trajectory; dismally
i stared, and conspired with
the blanketing ground.
to interject, and be-snatch you...
i see a swimming, composing
swift waves, doppleganger.
burning trees around
alter-egos seeking shaded
congruency.
faux.  strike a mistake.

indigo gel melts
with a dripping sky
and air cuts my ear,
resounds

do some gracefulness
with, as i, myself, your's
to fall forever, ever
fading and falling,
severed, staining cryptic
photochrome.
pinch the Moabittess in
folds of hazy cellophane
plus the fogging of our
serene scape; a sudden flash...
an other-worldly minute, please.
bring into future the
appeased past.
huff.  the planets move.

sweet fall.  descent; swing low
grasp my grasp your grasping my
grasp.
air clears and sky awaits
us, to ascend our descent
liquid covers frosty film
beg.  transparency:  open
curtains faded, enter
step into still frame
remove lost acquaintance
strike a gesture, then
a pose.  how milky.  white
and serenely soft.  i swim.


 A true novice of a man when it comes to being a man at something...

I'm with sven........
although now that you've added that last part its much clearer than before?

Very creative I think.

You should put this in the forum CA,
I'd like to see their comments.

brandon,
this is a very cool poem,
it has a mystic and cryptic uniqueness about it.
while I will be honeset to say, Im not sure I entirely grasp what your trying to convey here...
it is still a very interesting read with strong imagery and detail.
perhaps you could offer me some clarity to your inspiration or meaning behind this.
(not that it has to have any...Im just curious)
please take notice that I did not use the *L*
word one time in my reply  




 ~as always, Take Care,JM~
--------------
I know it's been a long road
To get these towns behind me and I
Will gladly reap what we may sow--
I am there for you ...
and you're there for me ...
Are you waiting for
Heart in hand
Woman and man
See me where I stand I am
Heart
Heart in hand
~vertical horizon~
