architecture
      
     point

I was lost in light
     in
         bound ceilings
and shadow-plays

disap-point-ed
at this
         prison-dome
but I
      
        found my point
        like a sudden spear
and walked through
the
sun-filled vulva of candle-flame

and found
my release

and held that shape
while the oxygen
raced

Brian...I love this!  I can't pick out any
favorite lines, because I love the whole of it.

VERY cool write, my friend.

I feel like I'm inside
an acetylene tank...
and the escape will come
any moment...

excellent, Brian....

something in the write and the arrangement that does evoke the feeling of being in the presence of some awe inspiring design

Excellent poem.  I, too, cannot pick out my favorite lines, because I love this in its entirety.  Love the ending!  The language was very soothing.  Good write!
