Interact and InterveneA Poem by RayinNo matter where u go I will always be with you as a friend, a friend that you never learn to understand fully because of stereotypes
Water, drifting, shifting, slipping, crawling from the heavens
like serpents coiling they tighten your clothes in their grip, as you slowly walk in a sea of black suits a boat seeking its exit. Drifting you are but a innocent, invisible to the eyes around you all they see is a face and a body dressed in red and blue hidden in a mist of movement. As you slowly walk onward through the streets and round the corners, like taking turns in your life. Everything around you is blurring. Finally you stop, your legs numbed, everything around you is quiet even as you watch the bustle of bodies move and bump into each other you can hear nothing. Then slowly the walls fade, falling away like cubes into the sky taking the people with it and the floor that you walk on becomes nothing but darkness. a quiet melody of music starts to echo around the empty space the rhythm start to massage your ear the bass pounding like the heart in your chest the drum shakes the floor on which you stand upon the quiet voices move your mouth like a spiritual chant. Closing your eyes to the melody of soul. Then beside you I am, to feel the music with you The empty space slowly starts to fill with people all of them eyes closed heads tilted upwards as if to observe the heavens through closed eye lids. The space starts to return around us the cubes return twisting into place the bustling street at a stand still as they look up at what is around them you stand in the middle and open your eyes that are deep blue and see the music flowing through people Interacting with each other forming melodies that could pierce the heavens. Like translucent water, of energy do they slither between the gaps of the many bodies and legs as they all look to the sky in prayer. The cloud is falling away the rain has stopped and the sun shines once more its been 10 long years but I can still see you, no matter if I am on-top of this scraper or 5 feet under ground and no matter how much I yell you don't hear me or see me or feel me or understand There is still more that you do not know about me but I wonder if there is ever enough time when time is always so far away. © 2010 Rayin |
