Life voyage Shadows of ghosts, phantoms of pride Stalk within me and live inside. Scour synopsis of my brain Where serendipity rules reign. Through the abysmal I sail where Heaven has blacked the stars of braille. And sirens sing in constant sound Those are the pounding raves that pound. I am alone, within a zone Solitary, to every bone. And numb the skin that lays the core Enmeshed within this web of store. I'm haunted by the doldrums stay That beats no drum but torpid lay. A child lost the abyss of time My only thread the silk of rhyme. And I ring that bell loud and clear To clear away the smothering fear. The fear that ghosts each phantoms tide That grabs my sand to reach my pride. The shoal is there it does not hide Nor do I fear to be a bride. |

in silver light I would you cast hold tight then on to ship's great mast across the seas of thundrous wave cast to you the lines to save cause me worry, cause me fear in light of this, I shed a tear in silvered light I would you cast hold tight then on to this your mast Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Karilea, If I could accept your line Leave the boat or so incline. Then you would be in danger too And that I would never do. *L* |

Through the abysmal I sail where Heaven has blacked the stars of braille. And sirens sing in constant sound Those are the pounding raves that pound. =============== A child lost the abyss of time My only thread the silk of rhyme. And I ring that bell loud and clear To clear away the smothering fear. The fear that ghosts each phantoms tide That grabs my sand to reach my pride. The shoal is there it does not hide Nor do I fear to be a bride. =============== "Heaven has blacked the stars of braille." that is one of the COOLEST lines and images I have ever read...oh man!!! and this one ... "My only thread the silk of rhyme." and this whole verse...... "And I ring that bell loud and clear To clear away the smothering fear. The fear that ghosts each phantoms tide That grabs my sand to reach my pride." WAAAAAAY COOOOL ... and those ghosts and phantoms have some damn fine cadence as well . *winkiewinkie* stinkie dinkie *L* me Some people find subtlety in strangers if you find anything~let me in Your eyes~you see everything my eyes~I see it all together now~and I know |
