Melpomene
By Corinthian
prayer
worn canopies
and
dreams of sense
unhidden .
above you
I
will forever stay
unforgetting and
spinning
tales
for you
wind rocking
beneath this
calligraphic
underground sky
mossed soul
quiet tears
invisible light
forgettings . wishing
not to hurt
I shut my eyes and
felt my way
along this stone.
let loose
from
his tiny eternity
incomprehensible

"wind rocking beneath this calligraphic underground sky mossed soul "I love this metaphoric phrase... My mind-memories are pulled towards the words of the great James Morrison, but there is definite originality here. The intro verse captured me; your words kept me on. I'm not sure if I'm meant to understand exactly, but often that is what makes poetry. Perchance I'll revisit & dig harder into the flesh of these words... for now, I'll just enjoy the "poem of the day" what I read. Incomprehensible? Maybe, but it's a great slice!
