Notes From the OriginA Poem by PerditionWould you be willing in our final hour of sleep? Life and linens laid mere inches from our fate. Awakened. Gasped and freed from mortality, Would you bear the mind of mirrors and higher dreams? Recall our careless bested days, our untouchable smiles owned by night’s mysterious untangling? Would we remember the broken angles, incurable, or our unease we could shatter like prisms of sunlight through glass on the summers of landscape? Mild
aquatic ringlets declaring our death. Would you ever. with slivered marrow, recall bleeding heart to heart, clueless past dark confusion. The clock protruding from the evergreens. Wolf and tiger-eye laced. Our lock of emptiness so brilliantly placed around our necks. It was the air 'neath simplicity's hovering, engendering swallows from their nest. Holding our broken flesh as the willful day, we were but bound as droplets to rain, and within our sanity, our brief
lucidity, we believed one day to mercifully forget. © 2017 PerditionReviews
