The Seeding Cloud The very moment I sought it out, long enough to submit to curiosity, to tilt my head up questioning, it swiftly gathered into a face I knew — darkness, seeding, spreading overhead. That emptiness: devoid of tenor, quivering, beyond flesh, aria of the lost; I hoped it was imagined, projected in my own rising panic, anything, anything other than that image — a relay after death, from you. © 2002 C.M.

Well done, Corinne. Well done, indeed. Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Corinne~ Your ink-of-thought often leaves me spell-bound~ This is one of those times~ 'The very moment I sought it out, long enough to submit to curiosity, to tilt my head up questioning, it swiftly gathered into a face I knew — darkness, seeding, spreading overhead. I hoped it was imagined, projected in my own rising panic, anything, anything other than that image — a relay after death, from you.' Absolutely REAL and stunning~ *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |
