You’d dance the corners of my soul Into round fallings where edges cleft the palate Leaving split speech still to stutter In my own harsh way Against the roof of scars Licked gently by tomorrows tongue Then fall Free tumbled as stone passed by the eyes In a humble version of open up Let me in to feel again the way It is when leaves burn in flame Not the smoking smolder of grey to scent Crisp thoughts If I extended my arms and you In a run away from something softer than The brittle sheets of ice so sculpted For the pleasure of empties and passers by Who think to selves thoughts of prying apart The join of thighs so they Can sink their lips into some soft flesh Or bury a head in some hole That they do not have to see Come sunrise Slipped on the slick of my heart You might indeed sway For precipices have some error for margin Given statistical relevance and reason To measure that way The center of gravity and how momentum Pushes notes over one another in a jumble Unable to stop the music you’d have me make I’ll play the fiddle woman But all fiddlers Must get pay So drop the veils and strip bare the skin I’d see the veins you swear Burn with cashed out fire Then maybe I’ll make change Of broken C’s While you and I sip The air We bleed |

"So drop the veils and strip bare the skin" ah, dearest Poet, aka fiddler, I ask..can you do the same? "cast me gently into the morning, for the night has been unkind" |

Yanno? Your use of imagery is so refined and perfected.... and this?You’d dance the corners of my soul Into round fallings where edges cleft the palate Leaving split speech still to stutter In my own harsh way Against the roof of scars Licked gently by tomorrows tongue Then fall Is worthy of more than just a damn.... it's more like.....BRAVA!!!! |
