they are losing me they are losing me the words flit in then out they are playing games and my muse she slowly strums a flute it simply comes to her to begin adding song to the lyrics that are losing me and thus I have gone beyond repute he read a line she heard a sigh somewhere out and over there a concert of form a line bygoes the norm when one hears the birth of a corm … grow… they are losing me and no one sees no one knows… how those simple little varied lines will glow simple comes in subtle desire I read a line I become fire but nevertheless in my haste, I confess I hurry to write, I then redress each word, each stroke, each so fine a line and ask self, were these mine? were they ever of grand design? or are they simply words of sine…. to be curved in and then carved without a poddling, seed, a winsome doubt a tadpole, fry, of little scheme to grow fruitful, to fulfill all kindred dream to be held, and warmed, a grand origin holds me safely, without the sin but they are losing me the words I would pen in a gift I would give and then yet again I would keep them all so close to vest but ‘neath sun, by wind they would visit, see? as surely as they are losing me |

Karilea, Something about this poem, the way it's constructed, the way it "talks" reminded so much of Tennyson. Tennyson's poems so often talk to the reader and that is likely why his poetry still lives on today. This, my friend, was much enjoyed.. Thank you Michael Proust- |

Beautifully done! It has a gentle flowing rythym that carries the reader through the imagery like waves... the crest of each wave being those four powerful words.."they are losing me". And incidentally, I too have often wondered where "my" words have come from as my muse seems to have a mind of her won. lol |

Honestly, this is awesome. I've been captured for a over a week by a writers blockade, but somehow I don't mind it when I can sit back and relax with a good cup of coffee and read such wonderfully truthful musings. Midnitesun |

What a convoluted path you take me along from beginning to end, your thoughts flow without effort into a whole which is much greater than its parts. I loved this one, very stylish. Regards Olias. |
