(Here's a re-post from last year as I begin prepping my pen up for a poetic potpourri of new summer poems and songs for this year, yay!  )* Blistering Wilderness By: Noah Eaton 1/1/06 Staring up through the canopy, can feel like peeking through a razor blade, dignity dominates the atmosphere, but serenades have a tendency to masquerade. Beneath all the distorted noise pollution, I still hear your voice whispering, I’m just a polyphonic vagabond, awaiting an entrance to your community. (Take me in, be my muse tonight, take me in, be my muse tonight...) Your eyes breathe on my face, I feel the sweetest taboo, envisioning your smile, if I may insist, please persist, Lord knows my heart’s electrocuted within, but you’re the second wind, that can get me through this blistering wilderness... . . . . . Last night you left a scar, in the most fertile regions of my heart, you sensed all the perilousness, and unchecked profusion on my pilot chart, I swear I can see your thoughts take shape, each time I’m stricken with this heat stroke, and beneath the white noise, your laughter filled my lungs like smoke. Your eyes breathe on my face, I feel the sweetest taboo, envisioning your smile, if I may insist, please persist, Lord knows my heart’s electrocuted within, but you’re the second wind, that can get me through this blistering wilderness... . . . . . Tracing all your outlines, glazing all your eyelashes, I’m sipping your felicity, the emotional heat flash, you were my meal ticket, when I was parched of thirst, I was stranded between oases, your most beautiful came unrehearsed… . . . . . Your eyes breathe on my face, I feel the sweetest taboo, envisioning your smile, if I may insist, please persist, Lord knows my heart’s electrocuted within, but you’re the second wind, that can get me through this blistering wilderness... . . . . . . . . . "If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other" Mother Teresa |

"Blistering Wilderness" ~ So painfully sad and barren sounding! I could sense that all through your eloquent ~ and highly poetic! ~ poem. "Lord knows my heart’s electrocuted within, but you’re the second wind, that can get me through this blistering wilderness..." May your need for that "second wind" soon be over! ~ and may your "wilderness" become a veritable Garden of Eden.  Loving hug, EA |
