Moon Lady Of Phoenix Snow

By carlosjackal




Virgins in foliage with blood on jungle teeth
Brush the vines as paint turns to sand
Spots on eyes raining embers into vision
Sharp flowers abstract everyday faces

Deserts smothered in snow and
An orangutan on an ice cap

Moon lady of phoenix snow
Calm guide in this insanity show
Turmoil swirls in your wild irises
Through breakdown, wisdom gained

Your intellect unfurling along stringed vibrations
11-dimensional beauty greater than every theory of god
Spherical notes shaped perfectly
Like secrets
Into the curve of your palm

    Nimue nailed it... This imagery is abstract in and of itself. The mosaic of a story left collected in palms :)

  • A former member wrote: "11 dimensional beauty"? I can only imagine, friend. This is a very worthy Poem Of The Day. The imagery in this is stunning, and the words just captivate the reader in ways that cannot be explained. Very well done, babe. Queen Reb:).

    Fantastic, yet somehow disorienting... The imagery is awesome, yet indeed abstract! The final stanza left me with the yearning for something, the feeling of watching a pendulum come and go, maybe... Wow.

    She plucked the strings of my heart from the very first line's start. Fantasy under the influence of science. She tastes my tongue sweet in my mouth.
