dusk carries the lone rattle calling all to gather joining at the right shade of curtain voices carrying the word the word that humans tried to conjure around fire -a circle of eyes and blurred arms transporting time -the word of an organ under Bach's fingers pale moonshadows of this the original I hear tonight I wonder if it is the rehearsal the angels warming up their lips... The earth will vibrate in ecstatic expectancy |

voices carrying the word the word that humans tried to conjure around fire ~*~ thank you... rare are the times when the music is so softly played... that the angels cry.... Bri...you have no idea, [which is a cliche in itself] how much this feels to me... |

It's funny that you say like breathing, because that's what I was thinking when I looked at the poem as a whole. The asthetic quality lends itself to a soft low rhythm - I really enjoyed that paired with the poem itself. psh - you get inspired listening to bugs. I have to beg and bribe my muse. whatever. |

It's beautiful poetry but I still don't understand the title. This, the original... heh... the symphony of sound. Nicely written, Mr. Sites... Parasite Faith is a fine invention |

How did I miss this? knowing now that you construct these instinctively, I'm more amazed than ever was at how profoundly the construction adds depth and layered meaning to the words. You ARE a madviking genius... or would that be? "you ARE a mad viking genius..." gleegiddy kissing you bri... enimlegna! |

Glad Kacy bumped this as I had not seen it before. I love the line breaks you use Brian, they add so much to the reader. Hey, how's about a new poem, too busy over summer? |

Well, I happen to know that Bri has had trouble logging in--prolly 'cause he lost his password and changed e mails addresses since then. I can prolly persuade him to write an administrator for help tho. I TOLD him ya'll missed him! (see, Bri? And nope I did not put anybody up to this.) nibble |
