Impossibly ForgottenA Poem by Brett Hernansemi-completed half blown away crossword puzzle, encrypted msg, ornamental carousel, languorous long slow afternoon something hidden in the shade, a storm coming, windows open curtains moving in the wind... Falling end to end from the edge of clouds unseen against a Moonless night sky precisely carved ornate colossal marble pillars dispensed thrown in uniform conveyor belt regularity to drop under gravity to reach terminal velocity to impact upon an iron ground pulverized upon contact into dust cloud tufts of fine marble powder pouting along lines formed which are the cracks appearing instantaneous to create mounds of crushed rock. The darkest and coldest portion of the night is always within the hour just before the first sign of the Sun's reappearing. © 2017 Brett Hernan |
