![]() "Hail Metropolis!" (nature)A Poem by Butch Decatoria
Chapbook "Hail Metropolis!" (Nature)
BUTTERFLY A dangerous thing. Inspirations' fragile wings. Metamorphoses. BARRIER REEF Great walls dividing. Vast cold deeps from Summer seas. "Hail Metropolis!" LOTUS FLOWER Morning--Star-burst--bloom. Floral crown on tranquil lake. She walks on water. SEAHORSE Pregnant father sways Rocking chair to Oceans' gait. Champions patience's race. BOMBYX MORI White Mulberry leaves, Veins of Univoltine wine. Silk, worm's waste of time. ORCHID Soft petals open. Easy her wild poetry. Medicine and muse. LAVENDER How like a feather Dancing meadows' Royal hue. Perfumes of twilight. OWL (Query) "Who?" Rather than tweet In the dark keenly can see All her nameless prey. DEATH VALLEY Akimbo cacti. Near the scenic highway roads. Flail in Hell's hot suns. TSUNAMI Deaths' devastation. Chaos drowns all the petty Wars and last concerns. COMMUNING These very mornings, I awe as the blue ocean drinks The sky bleeding gold. DINOSAUR All we have are bones. Our flesh once Giants : lies, dust. My feelings extinct. SUNFLOWER A golden pinwheel. Tall and proud, the face of day, Burns bright love's bounty. © 2016 Butch Decatoria |
