Isolation Thirst Alone in the far corner of a world of dreams I listen to the plaintive whisper of sweet memories with wings clipped with time fluttering a sedate, soothing rhythm through this cool flesh sliding so namelessly familiar over this landscape of loose translation. She kisses me, slowly forces herself through me; my trembling assembles a tacit myth: this is of significance. We move in lasting time, resisting a sense of desperate secrecy. Then, somewhere far below us, the strangers, the rest of them, begin to stir. I need not ask she stay until I forget. And we are laughing-- the day has come too soon And we are sobbing. This is a stranger's clutch; so little time to learn so much-- as if no other night could bring such a futile, fleeting touch. And because she sighs, and because she sings as she becomes my pain-- I must steal the night again.

I pictured mountain top, valley, and other such scene imaginary. I enjoyed the poem. I speak insanity. I write fantasy. I sleep reality. |
