Earthly Frames

Stunning wings unfold a native wind
As
Desert souls cross fiery paths

Sands of time gather for eternal play
Where
Broken glass falls back to birth

Black pansies wax exquisitely
Watching
Ornate pedals bleed from sugared wounds

The Lady Divine weeps bitterly from her throne
Yet
Beseech her not for death has been her life's soul pattern

So we play in lucid dreams of our Gods
Forgetting
Unremitting lives just to grasp the moment of this day

And in stroking this page I hope that beauty will oblige
Alas
My pen has found its event

A strangely beautiful yet disturbing poem

Welcome to NeoPoet, I look forward to reading your other works but won't get to them all tonight. You posted just a few too many. This is a site where we try to consider each and every poem. Give us a chance to consider each of your works with thought and care. cheers, Jess

Oh, I so relate to late night stir craziness!

If you ever get a really harsh review from me, check it against Australian time and you will probably find it was posted after 2am on a Friday or Saturday. Most regulars here have learnt to forgive my occasional excesses, which sometimes include some brutal honesty and at other times are just bloody silly and wrong! Planning to catch up with the rest of your postings tonight (Tuesday and before 2am 8)) cheers, Jess
