bells of jellyfish

By Corinthian






+





















small demons and
skeptics raised directly
from the roots clouds
reddened and ships
eardrum sniff in unknown seas

frail buds
rise in the uterus
with a terror
slipping through
the ribs with fetus bones

my head runs over
by the howls of larks
vibrating the atlantic snows
in my crown

as the universe tightens

























imponderables

    Frail buds really got my attention, and still pondering, thanks!

    I could spend an entire year relating to this, especially the closing word. Your heaviness is my heaviness, we just carry it for different reasons, because they were given to us differently. I do not know just how to compliment your work, everything I want to say is too far off and distant dancing with your haziness. You are a gift, your soul I see.
