StarIvy Entanglement I

StarIvy Entanglement I

It's was, is and will be are one.

Each is different and distinct.

However, twisted and entangled they be,

Circles upon circles,

Circles of infinity trapped.

Boundlessness held by the limited.

Star Ivy stretches to the far reaches of infinity.

It encircles the dark dependent bodies of the fearful void.

He surveys the twisted Star Ivy.

He questions the circles.

The Star Ivy moans in agony.

It is a tree.

Vanity be its root,

Stoutness it draws from the loam of man.

The fruit upon its limbs be contaminated and noxious.

He who is less and more than a King,

The bedeviled sea of stars surround.

Mutilated questions emerge from the swampy labyrinth.

Thickening and enslaving even the stars themselves,

Answers be few and hard.

Star Ivy laments,

Search you must,

For you who is less and more,

Find you will she who awaits.

Questions choke Star Ivy.

Entangled and ensnared in chaos is he.

Again, he cries.

Bloody crimson rivers of tears flow.

Flowing into the bottomless gulf of infinity,

Sound echoes down the endless hallway.

She answers!

From the infinite, she comes.

Finite and limited as he,

Merge they as one.

What was, is and will be?

Light renders the darkness helpless.

Chaos he finds hidden in the light.

Endless terror engulfs.

Time past, time future and time present weep,

The sword of truth kills the false.

She is the sword.

To no end be his hopeless questions.

Broken to be the bitter sweet reunion,

Answers and questions be one.

He puzzles at the darkness.

Light that once was, is now gone.

Like a lost dream shattered be the heavens.

Chaos and utter turmoil,

Warped be the Star Ivy.

Suffocating and causing even the infinite to perish,

In deathly birth the Star Ivy cries out.

Imprisoned by paltry bars,

Be the incalculable,

As a circle so be the inexhaustible.

[Farah Husain]

I love the imagery your work evokes and the feelings that the words bring up. Misty shadowy mysterious...

[H.L. Cerveise]

Thank you for reading and reviewing this writing. I am glad you loved the imagery and that you could feel the emotions in it.

[Monica Chen]

I love the tone of this poem! It has a dark, foreshadowing feel to it and manages to be so eloquent at the same time. Also, the concept of how time, life, etc. are intertwined and is one of my favorites!

The graphic of the tree with curving, interlocking branches fits this poem perfectly.

[Emily]

I let my mind sleep reading this and just felt it. Anguish, twisted pain like deformity from birth, utter desolation, I know there are lines of love and finding each other, but I was so overwhelmed by the dark intensity, even words of love could not penetrate the spiraling, contracting black hole I fell into. Perhaps this is the line that got me the most- suffocating and causing even the infinite to perish- I felt it coming even as I started the poem- this line was already present. I know from your other writing that you are not without hope, but if I had only read this, I would assume you, the poet, was in such incalculable relentless pain, no touch could reach you. But now, I read this not with my mind . . . So it is only my heart that grieves. My mind says there is more of the mystical in this like your other works, more of experience in the realm of physics. But my heart, it weeps.

Thank you for reading and reviewing this poem. I just renamed it and finally found a graphic that comes close to what I see. It is not exactly how I envision StarIvy but close. Over the last several years, my spirit has been working on more writings with this one being the first. I wrote this one over 30 years ago. I still read it regularly and in each section, I see entire writings growing from those smaller pieces. At the time, I wrote this, I was in chronic pain of mind, spirit, heart and mostly body. I think it was during this time I started sensing and understanding that time is not linear, and if we know how to see it as it is we will start asking the right questions. You are correct I do try to show hope in my writings so I feel that is another reason I have to create a series out of this.

[Marianne Rose]

Thank you so much for filling in the missing piece- that this was written so long ago and the pain I felt in it was real, not just my projection. I like the idea of your writing a series on this . . . It resonates with me. Good luck & looking forward to reading the parts as they develop.

It is amazing how you have factored in time through this piece
without making reference to it

Like all great things
Complexity is a derived element
He looks at her in total bewilderment

Getting in touch with her soul
being truly connected

and she being a whole can deliver emotion to him but disconnects
to be herself

The future that lies ahead in total dismay
the uncertainty of it all

you have a thing with words
like a sculpture this piece is alive

and that is beyond amazing

i have seen nothing like it before

[H.L. Cerveise]

Thank you for reading and reviewing this writing. Time is not linear like most think, it is a entwined Celtic Knot with no beginning or end. I am glad you like this poem and that it makes you think about the cosmos.

Here is a quote from Matrix: "You take the blue pill, the story ends. You wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes."

Now imagine you take both pills!

[Nisreen]

lol ..... dont ever stop writing
and i am gonna read some more

[Rose]

Wow this is really amazing I absolutely love it! Keep up your great work :)

[H.L. Cerveise]

Thank you for reading and reviewing this writing. I am glad you loved it.

[Rose]

Your welcome ^^

[Zaliodir]

Wow, that was intense! I admit, I got a bit of a sensory overload there. Its a somewhat confusing poem to me, though that could just be because its the weekend, and I am tired from work. The beginning made me think of the universe as a giant celtic knot, "circles on circles". Nicely done. =)

[H.L. Cerveise]

Like I said in your review of Starhill, I know I tried to cram too much into this one poem. Oh it so like a Celtic knot and I am glad you got that out of it. I view the cosmos like a vast web/Celtic knot that is nothing but waves of vibrating energy connecting all. It exists not just in every direction but in all times, and if we ever learn to tap fully into that it will answer all our questions.

[Zaliodir]

=) You are starting to sound somewhat like a string theorist, but I tend to agree with you. =)

[H.L. Cerveise]

What I find funny about string theory, bubble theory, multiple universes, infinite dimensions and so on, is that modern-day physicists are just now discovering it when it has been understood in a metaphysical way by a number of eastern belief systems. Just one example can be found at, (https://www.quora.com/What-do-Hindu-manuscripts-texts-say-about-multiple-universes-or-a-multiverse)

A big influence on me in the early 1980s was a book called "The Dancing Wu Li Masters." So I do have to give credit to this book and many other readings that formed my cosmos view and my writings.

Strange how we view our ancestors as 'primative' isn't it?
