(this will be my theme piece for my blog and my next book. i think it says something)
once upon a time
delirium hung in the rafters.
like streams of ice
running of the roofs
of tall buildings and pounding
the pavement below –
logic completely off balance.
all the inner tones
corrupted in life’s
disarrayed frictional verses.
it takes time –
a fight with god’s thunder
has left the wanderer of the peace
clearly in the dark oils.
recovery ensues …
life resumes little by little.
the dark oils
re-unite with light oils,
and the blend
churns as if in pistons
as if on a long trip.
then it happens –
ebony and ivory,
like a mini falls of a good rush.
life is all a scheme –
kiss existence with two hands.
educate a little with poetry
that bi-polar voices matter.
good things
do happen once in awhile.
I think this is lovely, and very rich in meaning. It speaks to me in a special way.
i’m glad that you enjoyed this one and that it spoke to you in a special way. an enjoyable part of the mission of words and life.
