a hot august wind A hot August wind blows in cups a small cloud on the rim to expand and travel up as the nine minute light stream ignites the motes there wrapped in steam and the Brownian rain of swirling rock, all measured in single tocks. And in the firmament of the seed are the trees made of leaves made of beams spaced in between more things unseen and named, the what and the not. And in the fable of the mind are the shadows of the things we find. The numbered sparrows are our clocks and tangerines and sleek angled things circle round the gears within the dendrite stops. And we have warm red and beating within and hold acrylic forests fragrant of summer sap a million years old in our grasp. And there is a fabric in the air with lavender leaves in inky black, and cool glass ridges of melted sand hot from a megavolt thundery hand, all which we see or see not as the art of the Artisan. And there is a veil behind the eye where reflection slips on pulsing tangent ticks. It is a small gray spot ten degrees wide. More will be the blue of spring and winter green and table tops. More will be the hand and feet. More will be the rings, the numbered lines and measured things. More will be the somewhere there. More will be the plotter’s plot. And we will make what nature cannot and stop and stare. ANNOUNCING! my novel COOL UNIVERSE is now posted in the prose forum. Enjoy!

What a novel way of advertising your novel. How wonderful, especially if it's anything like your poetry...But how will it all fit? Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

mirror man Very cool universe, indeed! Enjoyed the surreal imagery in this, and the fresh put together of words. Good stuff! |
