at cross purpose--
white on white--
Hyperion in satyr's sway
back
in the snow
against backdrop
of daylight
breaking into gray.

Pregnant ice
against the pale
of greenery
kept too long...
I stare through sheet
of man's made splice
condensating liquid pane...

subtle grays
and blues
opaque
I blanket
me
in blind
of white

horizon
sky
melds
into fry--
white on white
tears from the eye--
bleed clearly now
into blind lie.

I love this line. it reminds me of one of my favourite lyrics " A man melts the sand so he can see the world outside.." U2
I cannot lie, this poem was cryptic and way over my muddled head. And yet I still had to reply because I adore your writing and this use of words. Would love to know what lies behind them.

I too adore your writing...it leaves me sometimes not knowing what to say really.

loved the imagery, the use of the gods,
sometimes i fall into the white too,
and its just too blinding,
i dont know if this echos anything youve even
remotely written of, but this resonated in me, this way

serenity~
Whatever it's intended meaning, I really like this.
I may not always fully understand your poetry,
but that doesn't stop it from ALWAYS speaking to me,
and this was no exception.
Wonderfully penned, as always.
Hugs,

In blind of white.....a place where you can stare without thoughts.  At least this is mine, and I do visit there alot.

I told my sister to be sure and read your poetry. I really like your way of telling  stories and bringing the reader along for the ride.  

Most Excellent!
