Untitled.......



Dead buds on these limbs to bring forth a malice spring
bleached blossoms become a whiter shade of guilty red
                made heavy from the owl that landed in broken flight
my invisible noose to hang the sun that frames thy head.



This "nothing" is a place of placid belief with stale breath
cold bark decays and renews, like the shedding of sin
             soft cries billow forth, from a widow that mourns her lover
an amnesia fills the sky; forgetting when and how to begin.



Esoteric branches that touch the hallowed questioning
a perch for the soulless that seek asylum from the storm
            the bow breaks, another cradle will rock.....watch it fall
land softly, rain shatters like glass, my blood is lukewarm.

"an amnesia fills the sky; forgetting when and how to begin."
That is an intense line!
I love the entire intensity of the poem, the change of font adds to the dramatic effect! Wonderful!

I wish I could write out a great and extensive review, but I am at a loss for the words. All I can find to say is wow and I am in such awe of you and this poem right now. I know I've said this before, but you really do amaze me, 100.

I felt as though I was swaying back and forth...helped along by the font bolding you used. Just kept me in constant motion while I read down the page. Sometimes I get lost while I'm drifting when I read your works. I get lost inside them so well that when they end...not sure if I wan to put my feet down or go back and start again.. brilliant imagery :)

I DID come back... and that "room" is still here...
