In the shadows
    my soliloquy
I tripped upon
    concept time

Pondering drawn within
     beyond inspired

  drawn    drawn   within
      unturning
        undenied
           Time

       All

    to ponder
      its rhythms
        internal tides
     how do they when do they

        Rise

The nature of creature thus
     the living
       breeding
     of your kind

        Within

A call derides and classifies
         all of me
       backed into
   the inauspicious corner

           I

Voice the endless question
        why to feel
      passion of pacifists
        burning desire

           Seek

The gift of rage in range to
         follow moments
        to their unalterable end
          I see in feeling

           You

The thoughts that through my mind
          flow ceaseless
        never ending relected
           in your eyes

            Life

"The past my prison, confined in solitary voiceless penance."

I would even go so far as to suggest there was not one poem in here, but several that could stand on their own, all which interconnected and wove their way around a central thought of tripping over time...

THIS....liked me very much, and follows me to my library as it IS a keeper....

Yes indeed, there are two very obvious poems, I wonder how many you can find that speak wihthin the context of the whole. The parts are more than the title of the poem.

"The past my prison, confined in solitary voiceless penance."

The poems that you've woven, a true piece of art. I agree with SS; this is goes in my library.

Life is to short to not appreciate all of nature's gifts. As I sit & ponder in awe - quietly.
