Pondering the Beginning

1.
Concocted phonetic words, taking wing
Like water running under a bridge
Coupling with other thresholds
Breaking any existing boarders into
Divine nourishment…gestures explosive!

2.
Seeping through, from the inventor’s window
A keeping, to write, overcoming repression
As the last breath of night, loses its relevance
Trying so hard, to stay awake
Only to succumb, to the advent songs of morning
Digital impressions, like a book of hours sweeping
Dark walls, wanting fertile shape, speaking golden filets

3.
Who would care for such a quarrel?
Between the now, sidestepping dark & multimedia light
Casing fierce condemnation for what was…
Like a radiant bride, braiding clairvoyant touch
Emotions of violent renewal, like an invisible mountain top
Life’s articulate persistent yearning
Intensely blowing from some riverbank of memory

4.
The retina of mind, lends true fusion
Unfamiliar familiar, through all the agony of fury
Of the wars within us…love recording moments
Hot white lights, clocks, going in some cosmic link
A single heartbeat like Orion loosened
Some vain opium, speaking like a symphony
Mainline lovemaking of my senses
Night dissolving in the white powder of sunlight

5.
Ancient gamblers, compressed of bone
Faceless, uncensored embers of echoes
Making night sounds, like rolling lovers in a bed
Feeding on the stone wheel of diamonds
Then is when I long for you…

6.
Meanwhile, in this place, I shall dream a single purpose
Floating on ever changing weather
Of an afternoon moon focus, always hungry
For a few leaves left, by the gulls of mind
Reflective peace is clean…; ole stretches of hills
Seawall of light…”poor amplexious women”, I think…”if they’d only known”
Did their suppression know me, then?
I am their night inlaid...inception of drift...
Quiet house of branch, a window of Magdeline

7.
A wavelength of morning and evening
Silence
        Intimate
                 Sanguine
Sexuality was meant to be one…
Perhaps that is why, we are forever searching for our soul mates
Despite drunkenness, drifting with currents
We are one!
They lied!
Perhaps one night may mix with light becoming a blueberry sky
Not to bright, nor to dark, but a citrine light

I like the idea of a blueberry night.
Good morning sweety, well done.

Lee, if it is a special poetic potion that you take that enables you to write like this ~ then I gotta get me some! ~ and price is no option!

Dang, yer good!


Linda

May that citrine light ~ light your night!

love your mind lady~
wish i could get it out like you do~
flowing so smooth  
even strong words or soft as silk~

My spirit will rise
above the sea~
There will be no drowning
of my soul or me~
