land of odin
where the braznap are wolves
hunting the leaning tree woman
and making break back sounds
then laughter

their eyes are gray
like the mist on wristend fiord
that rises in the morning
when the longships glide
like velvet oar jaguars

shadow men are dark stones
that move the water
there is no wake
only protrusions
fitting the opening of sky

and the sky is soft sounded
hovering above tongues
listening to the forbidden words
that shiver clouds
and make the rain seep

to songs of swollen rivers

while reading this, I felt like I was watching a miraculous birth, cleansed with answers....in the necessity of things we either choose to understand or not

Incredible write, although, perhaps I've not even touched base...it is what I saw

Hiya and Good Morning...

Dark -

this has a mystic, nordic feel - it is very sensuous and pleasing-

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

protrusions rippled
in lapping onslaught
caught between
break of shimmer
and glide of eyes

Behold, the complexity
of the basic
and understand, feel, breathe
the vigor

Become
that which is scenic
and recline in peaceful wisdom.

Excellent read and much enjoyed the visions.
