paralleled world of marriage who is the like minded? willing is lying on your face looking upward do you live in the sky? nimble-fingered jokes are tendrils of enthusiasm that trees mutter teasing savagely about us in peculiar language nursing the very lap of slavery while swinging… like flap jakes in the morning whispering metallic melodies we are genesis, first inhabitants in this warmth of day are we, so far away from each other? I am so perceptive to your character arms begging god for superstitions towering dense poise hear me, help me commanding the quiet place one hundred feet above the house you take me, to embodiment of soul ever so far away from what was us I am hopelessly floating ore the uneven earth below in fire consultations pausing energy a deep shuddering …where every countenance becomes an era aware fatal impulse electric shock forgetting everything utterly hopeless powerful the hymn sonorous music steadfastly ringing in the fingers of day coming in through our window we beg God for heat of moon enforcing obedience to seal the sun lite hours in some kingdom where wind, chops up disturbing dreams into firewood…recoiling dust like invisible calculated distance you are an ocean farmer unwavering cuddling close, closer, over our distorted limbs nemesis….a tone of pity unless, we flee the squish, squish of lessons of sorrow harrowing systems denying life, freedom blank darkness steps off into a satchel of serious looking men who magnify where small rise of ground begins a resurrection of Christ…our comforts of life recalling and recounting oh the tears rolling down faces of loneliness by sojourn truth we labor delusion watch and pray together, like children never knowing, really, the noisy terror that moves through our camps of preachers of time, of specimens of words begging advice you place your fingers softly covering my mouth whispering, "hush" fear not You, with your expressive wisdom faith delights remarkably our origin where day becomes a rise in heaven on a cloud of powerful voice encircled by the dense body of animated moods will you remember? do you remember? truly thrilling the heart susceptible good voice bound by a promise we made long time ago and for a time, again I am yours sooth me… and I sweeten your solace temper whole being assembled around us calling it's children |

LeeJ., Loving the last five or so stanzas in particular; they brought the parallel home to me. Again, I am overwhelmed by your thought provoking poetry. I marvel at your word choice, as per usual. Take care. Hope your winter weather there is kind. misc |
