![]() SurrealismA Poem by David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic)![]() of time and space![]() Empty space, time and dimensions A place Where clocks have no value and time no meaning A place in the mind with no geographical measures and bounds The province of fools and those seeking redemption Too much explanation, too much rationalization, And the world of empty ambition from which there’s no rest A place of chaos, confusion and panic In the roseate brilliance from fiery forges Or dim lit sky… bisected by silhouettes of birds Where the pull of a thread Unravels the sweater And chains chatter coldly Upon hollow flagpole Where sands are etched in hieroglyphs By footprints and talons And smiles are as brittle as broom straws. Wherein your pulse is akin To the sound of a kettledrum A drear place where sharks circle With cold patient eyes And the music is the creaking Of weather bleached windmills Tilting in terminal space… Of shadows pooled in dark, dank places And lights, like both blades of razors, and Glow of candles in graveyards at night Slick pools of greasy mirages, Places of light smudged with fog Endless time…empty places Infinite dimensions… …of time and spaces… © 2012 David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic) |
