The stones will cry out
By Corinthian
In the fallopian darkness
the moon bandaged in clouds
and bitten.lip coloured stars
it was very ...quiet
frost quilted air ...
soft shoe dances
of sistinechapel.flakes
hitting the world.s floor
yawning ianthine lights
shadows pantomining broken ash.songs
..
sycamore prophets
hanging wish. ribbons
onto their leaves ..
fragrant stories in my finger.tips
trace your casper.lips
sleep my incanting lover
close at last your red.halo annointed eyes
cradling
your still born lover
with sleepy arms in her cotton coffin
,
covered in corinthian fingerprints

It's was beautifully capturing. The fact that the piece had such a haunting origin was softened by delicate words. -applauses-

tracing casper lips.... the lover and the beloved... I wondered if the corinthian was a reference to the Sandman character.... as if a dybbuk of sorts... possessing the deceased, maybe.... lip-bitten.... staunch heart-broken... stoic in word and deed.... those fingerprints... such sad-soft traces of what farewells must tear from the coldest of stones..... well wrought, goddess of the steppe.

such imagery... tone of forlorn... yet caressing.... a wish for the one who knows not wishes..... and a prayer for those who cannot pray, maybe... such poetry is wonderment... such a soul to bare.

the ending hit my eyes in such a way that it was either blink or tear, lucky for myself at least I blinked. You're a genius writer inara, and I'm always graced by your presence on this site. If only I could own a book of yours, where I could not need to write a comment, but only throw frivolous value into some ridiculous site to contain all that you've caressed. You must be published....
