The Calling Mist

The picture is not mine but I do own it , it hangs on my wall.

The Calling Mist

Alchemy springs with confession

investigative boys

sounds of gagging, one vomiting a Mario brothers tune

the other, a Pac Man wilt.

I can't look,

I can't look...

Married man seductions, cell phones and patriotic passions

everywhere today, the foot race of business suits

Dinner on the table served with lockjaw pain

the chewing silence, the "End Game" denial...

and that company where the power is running off testimony cliff

blindfolded the crouching black dogs find the sunlight.

I look at this bridge...Im not sure if I want to walk across it slowly gripping the ropes tightly or run across it so quickly I wont remember the fear.....but life I definitely ran through it too quickly and with my eyes closed...I fear I missed all the good stuff.

[Corset]

me too, but it's not that we missed it, we just failed to recognize the little things, the nuances buried in the clatter of fear, if you close your eyes and quiet your mind you can sometimes rewind memories you didn't even know you had.

[Corset]

something about burning bridges...but, but that's what we love about you!

Loved the image that seemed to guide us into the mist of your words... the enchantment of the place... of the movement across paths, both wondrous and wanton... The descriptions were painted in such dark hues... could feel the painful haunting...

[Corset]

We all cross that bridge from time to time, with a little leap of faith or like gang busters, the journey is pretty much the same

What a great picture, even better the poem is mesmerizing. A twist up of life’s anxieties and hang ups floating in a cauldron of truth. That dinner on the table line was awesome. Great piece...and Happy New Year back at ya!!!!
