Deep in the Pacific looking upA Poem by Count HumilusSilence of meScent fills a corked alchemy bottle Captured voices in your head Live in the void instead of telling me the time Gently sleep Hardly breathing in I conform to night time’s unpredictability I banish thought of sad bridges I get held back as red is the only color that can sometimes fill me Black pastures, I feel an abyss turned inside out inside my mind I am not sinking but I am raising the water to overflow I am not lost in madness but I am on the edge of the eye of the storm No going back Here we are Myself under a rubbing stone You under sad upside down trees, searching for sand dollars Clear water Genuine smiles Knocking it out of the stars towards Sleep walking with a warlock’s demeanor Feverish after shocks Inspiring statues to come to their senses and speak up for once Birds land on mirrors in love with their reflection Blurry light day dreams in the dark Ink dotted scars Smudged observations Smeared innocence Lost in a waves break I find myself quiet on a distant step Remembering what it was like to love I hang my head low I listen to Rue Elzevir’s violinist only meant for me © 2009 Count Humilus |
