Chaos and Hope

In a land of bewilderment

Days are filled with broken promises

Shining scornful rays of

Abandonment

In a wilderness of labyrinth burdens

Nights are cluttered with

Fragmented dreams

Under glacial lunar silver

beams of 

Disappointment

In the vacation of cosmic slumber

Hope dances amongst the stars

Whispering consoling secrets

That today's chaos 

She fade into diminishing vapor

Allowing the soul to rejuvenate 

As astral projection 

empowers the endless

free travel in the mind.

I just used some words of your write and weaved a poem of mine .. hope you like this.

In the wilderness of the labyrinth
on nights when the glacial lunar beams
cluttered with fragmented dreams, i writhe
searching frantically amongst the stars
trying to encapsulate your astral projection
rendering the last ounce of diminishing hope
that thou shall come back, hold my hand
and rejuvenate my soul to travel with you in time...

Love this piece

[Thomas Fitzgerald]

free travel in the mind indeed, the compounding thoughts and emphasis on raw emotion are soothing to read.

A powerful poem. Open the door to questions to ponder. I like the places you take me with your thoughts. Sometime last place to be free is the mind. Thank you for the outstanding poetry.

[Tina Kline]

A very creative and skillful way of describing the struggles that life throws at us, seemingly a little too often sometimes. I really enjoyed your poem.

At the end of the day it is good to breathe the night air and absorb the energy of the universe...

[Poetic Beauty]

Ahh that is a very peaceful time of day for me. One of reflection and one of calm

[Poetic Beauty]

Deep P. B. Very deep. I like the fact you pointing out this perfect officially greek meaning, chaos-cosmonogy, perfecly explaind through a travel of your mind, combined with these words. It's all the balance of heaven and earth that needs to come back to be rid of chaos. Well done.

Another great poem. Hope and Chaos all travel in a never ending cycle. One has to exist for the other just be definition. Great job. I loved the vitality of the colors and imagery in the poem. Great job.

[Pax Analog]

This poem is an eloquent navigation of emotional disappointments & yearnings.

Additionally, the hinge words "chaos" & "hope" summon questions as to whether the meanings exist beyond the relative (chaos theory reveals new patterns; hope/hopelessness are considered irrelevant in Zen). These are hardcore arcane points, so don't worry about 'em. ;-) I just riff.

You do touch on the evanescence of chaos, its "diminishing vapor."

All aboard "As astral projection/empowers the endless/free travel in the mind." ;-)

[Poetic Beauty]

Thank you for the amazing review. You put a lot of deep though into your reviews and it gives me great feedback.

[Pax Analog]

You're always welcome, darlin'. My underlying consideration is how poetics can be a spiritual practice, & how said practice can contribute mightily to the transformation of the world. Baby steps. ;-)

[Poetic Beauty]

Thanks. I am always thinking about the night time the universe and the cosmos
