Array ( [sid] => 49898 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Only Ever [time] => 2004-06-01 00:04:29 [hometext] => [bodytext] => For when you sing
your feathers glow,
pure melody radiating
outward in
slants of golden peace...



I see in you, you are
the words I cannot say, I
cannot see, myself...

These birds of beak and shining eye
alight on heart of dark,

...and i will not go...
...will not let go...



I will not see, I know
that I cannot let myself,
and I for you, you are the words,
the song
hands of pale white, nails glisten coal
i place over my eyes, and close,
let milky bliss please bloody me,
refuse this love of sight


Now must you be apart of me??
(must you see, now must?) You see,
it will never do,
melodious mix is never mine,
I'll never be
a part of it...

[ now body prostrate inside my cave ]
[ leave me alone, now ]
[ let me be, ]
now let me dream...


For when you sing
your feathers glow,
pure melody radiating
outward in
slants of golden peace...



When I open my eyes I see
(in this field of green and daisy)
on blue powder sky
(clouds are made of wishes ungranted)
drift by, they float...



[ you will only ever be a dream ]

good poem my little friend... I enjoyed it immensely as I enjoy all your stuff. Keep on writing and let your talent flow. I like how it ended as well sort of gave a finality to the poem which is always excellent.

For when you sing your feathers glow? pure melody radiating outward in slants of golden PEACE??!! This is absolutely beautiful. Everytime I read one of your posts I feel like I'm faced with the Rosetta Stone of verse. This feels like love poetry, but there are so many layers, a wordy Escher maze . I guess there's always the armour of verbal ambiguity to distract from the vulnerability of ardour. I am slowly deciphering.
