"I look up..."


And twisting stony walls pass me by
As angels spiral down from the architechture
Of the temple's sillhouette against the marble sky...

'I remembered once of sugared plums within a tree
And the sapphire hand that once possessed the world's mosaic structure
Of broken glass and air: Forgotten jewel,
How we miss thee.
I saw a candle flicker in the night
An understatement of the sudden vault between the stygian cave
And the verve that illuminates the vision of Paradise-
Within a mind.
Out of reach, yet so close within our dreams at night,
We tremble as children do
As our wings trace the fingers that you longingly desire
A fleeting thought of feathers that...'

Falls from the spire up above
As twisting stony walls pass me by
And angels spiral down from the architechture
Of the temple's sillhouette against the marble sky...


"...and up..."

My muse returned, finally. FINALLY!!! *shakes fist at Steve-bob, her muse*
It took a simple picture to inspire me. One of those really awesome pictures where they show the roof of a church with angels painted all over it. I don't know how they do it...I wonder if they get dizzy.

I apologize for the wide spread ideas popping up everywhere. I know it gets confusing. So, here's my explanation if you need it: The first and last lines in "double-quotation" are together. The third stanza in 'quotation' melts into the fourth stanza. The fourth stanza takes lines from the second stanza (although the "as" and "and" are switched around) to unite the entire piece. Framed by the first and last "double-quotation" lines, it borders everything inbetween. If you want a more indepth (symbolic wise) of the poem, I'll post it laters.
Now if that wasn't the most confusing thing you've ever read, I highly suggest ESP training.

Just thought I'd share a bit of thoughts (my thoughts) with you. ^_^ I'd say this one is one of the better poems. *yay* *Steve-bob applauds himself* oO;
