Human spirit, they say, is strong and stupendous, And if it desires, the soul of a person Could break through sinew and tendons, With no intention of changing its course. Then, Our bodies would crumble like deserted asylums, Taking down everything within their vicinity Into deep waters, where the sound of violins Will hit the casualties with the speed of infinity. Gods sank the Titanic as a metaphor and an omen, For what might occur if we get too powerful. But I feel,-- soon, my soul will dive from the oven And I’ll plunge, with a hissing, gulping a mouthful Of the life blood, -- of love and poetry, Of her perfume, and other perplexities... Overwhelmed, I’ll hit bottom and urgently, I will write once again of my Exodus. < !signature--> Check out my poetry here: http://cafepoetry.com/stage1/andrey_kneller.htm#My%20Hamlet [This message has been edited by Master (edited 10-15-2000).] |

Master, do you have homepage with poetry displayed? I'd love to get my hands on it. I don't think I could spill out everything I think about this in a simple post... maybe later I'll come back and edit this statement. Until then, PLEASE, keep your subjects erratic... Superb. ~ Beth [This message has been edited by Elizabeth Cor (edited 10-16-2000).] |
