Glowing Moon Sage-Unnoticed Magnificent HeydayA Poem by Eternal PoetSunsets, sunrises, silhouettes and afternoons Swallowed me up, like a great wine drenched ocean storm My birth this beautiful immense lonesome shoreline This moment my simple unnoticed magnificent heyday My death the transcendental summit finally ascended All I remember now is humility, splintered memories and shadows Love, captured like photos under streetlights and power lines Drunk, I swam the shallows like a minnow at midnight, naked My spirit and heart tattooed upon my sleeve for all to see I recited poetry under a glowing moon just like an ancient sage/bard Under the eyes of your deceit, I came to trust the unknown In the stillness of AM radio, I followed each spoken word and lyric Drifting across nightmares, soaked in fear, hate, poverty and war, I drowned in chaos This love will forever last like the fleeting melody of a 70s song, peaceful and lush like a summer day Singing luminous are the stars, the universe still glows like embers, I burn for you All along fire island, these are the years that dreams must arise, siphoned by the great spirit Wiping away tears that descend like spring showers Upon the decomposing leaves left behind, from the forgotten seasons of youth These verses I will remember, and this curse forgotten
