i wonder, sometimes about my unkempt hair i wonder stumbling over my large feet imagining, them slapping against sidewalks. who talk about marble being still, over level plains adorned with galleries scarcely discernible but proceeding in slanting directions like a metaphysical supreme authority connected with matters of this sort and how steps play and rise to impeceble heights… listening and finding myself measuring stride as i walk.... thinking about precious stones of some kind of liberal art that holds no political agenda close and their origin of power, expression... looking up, i see golden globes lighting this level space… always burning, these beautiful sentries… lining up like endless alphabets... marking liquid source herbs... depicted like live specimens of illumination perhaps to us, terrestial however, knowing their celestial rivers & how they cleverly paint marvelous interior resemblances these garnets of forces, dignity, legistalors languages, not yet known... these forces are well pleased to the point of inhabiting a philosophical fellowship, rich with a full purse of self love willing with ambition to rise higher toward all… mutually in same age these beautiful cells sorting years that different kinds of winds bring in virtues among us… telling us the manner of their carpentry reading to us about fields & fields which practice good feelings well read in the mind of God… letting go of desires, wants i feel so much wisdom yet unlearned like an ongoing therapeutic potential blooming there are garmets of willingness, of successive voices in workshops of the human heart a cleanliness without wrinkle globular togas of circumstace & necessity designed by armories of rings… rings in every street of stored hours, collecting each splendid painting… wings of halls & seasons marked off great deeds of intellect, lasting and forever aspired a solar city of thoughts ascribing into one sense praising plato, socrates, and all those yet to come i realize, the mistress of these arts the wisdom & love, fighting courageously to alighn… fastening ends, into threads of cloth making scent more profound… my body shakes as if a pleasant bath has soaked my mind, heaving my soul to a higher definition savoring a clemency of powerful things poured forth by a true oracles of the world knowing in deficiency, arises a law, unspoken it is then, I no longer fret of my unkempt hair or of my large feet, stumbling now, hear the beat of sidewalks feel their pulse, I feel the sun of globes, lighting my way releasing my journeyed place under the equator, on land and sea a public domain, mountain, rain, wind... potency, circumference becomes a palace of language that floats me into a picture of similar space extending the outer sides of what we have not yet reached... but someday will I am happy for this walk.... |

Have you ever written a poem that wasn't worthwhile? If you did, I haven't read it....and would like to, just to know there's a chink in your armor! ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
