sitting here staring at that blinkin' cursor
having nothing other than that buzzing...
A poem is the funeral pyre bright,
Of pulsations once exhumed from the deep...
known quantity bereft of quality;
a name of little beyond its letters...
Farther onward, always skyward;
high above, hurtling ever hard...
Entering through resplendent gates,
to where countless dead seek final rest...
wreathe of words sprout upon doorstep bed
beneath a far-looking moon, whisper to ear...
sometimes out of sadness a new chance at beauty and grace arises |
...we killed those darlings on social platform poetry |
Nothing is as sweet to the lips than the ashes strewn from the phoenix rising. |
