A State of Disarray

0 posted 2002-01-08 12:52 PM


Oblique, the musty rains
That slant between, and delve beneath-
To purify, the obsequious soul
Oh what, to what do they bequeath?

Amazed, in roughshod countenance
That sails along, I begin to fade-
To abrogat, this unholy warp
For what, to what do they trade?

Irresolute, the withered rains
That feed among, and play within
To oversee, the lingering moraine
So what, to what do they begin?

Vacuous, in resurgent canvas
That wakes upon, I start to emerge-
To pervade, this quiescent palette
From where, to where comes the next urge?

Just believe...

Beautifully written, Amusemi.  It has a mysterious and mystical feel to it.
Great job.

I was moved by this, and I really can't put my finger on it.
But it moved me.
