Luminescence

today
I rubbed
my wrist
together
trying to
remember
the essence
of my
scent


"It is like looking for a blizzard in a glass snowball. Unless you shake it up not one flake will fly."

enoyed..
but this leaves me lonely.
As if I'd stayed too long off in a dream
and forgot where I was going.

Always, Alyssa

Would it be far too insincere sounding if I simply said that I loved this? It just fits my mood right now (and many other nows). This is my favourite kind of poem. Short and to the point.. yet it lingers on you long after you're finished.

Shiva went on break now look at how much it's gonna take to make this place a space where we can breathe.

mmmmm.... I would think the essence one hard to forget...

ery nicely done..concise and as usual distilled to the essential elements as served subtly
