Is it me…
that escapes across digital vellum
words in whispers print without ink
this poor poem I wish I could tell them
it seemed so easy but it is hard to think
no work is without toil, I write without a pen
no joy without laughter, no whiskey to drink
between dreams and sleep
primal reckoning beckons deep
and sighs like a waning moon
struggle with the sandman he will win soon
light fades in conspiracy and shadows stratum
as my face falls flat onto hard macadam
scorned supplicate of the immortal
still in my wee hours I am at this portal
the heavens discharge my requiem
issue the warning my soul is like a museum
and so we are all in the hands of some evil tools
visions between clichéd rules
neither give cherries to pigs nor advice to fools
I eat the night hungrily and lick the velvet sky
haunting hereafter cowers in my eye
elusive longings disappear bar an impulse to cry
smooth visions devoured by sensation
sensual touch in the sly vast night
expose in advance of some provocation
exhale with lovers' and dawns breaking light
when the air tastes sweet a witness to prayer
as I write to recite at sometime, somewhere
It is me…
Love it
Love it.

I am printing out this poem
I am printing out this poem so I can feel it is my own, and putting it in my bra to read in privacy over and over again.
Because if feels good.
Because I want to sigh like a waning moon, like it makes me feel. ;-)
Seriously think it's 'the bomb'. Every line has an awesome something.

...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."
"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "

Digital Vellum, Batman!
Damn, I wish I had thought of that line, but it's yours and kudos for't. Love the new pic. If I printed out this poem and stuck it....in my stack of other poet's poems (Phewooooooo) I'd write a poem based on every line - a poet's poem this one - Great writing, great poetics! Such balance! Be well, ~allets~
you are the very best
all of your love of the craft is so evident
as always
Peace
