DARK INDIGO INK

 

Rejection

of prior input

 

return to raw

basic data

yet the day remains

 

in dark indigo ink;

the words of prophets

etched in the souls

of other humans

 

the tusk

of elephants;

the angels; the clouds

concealing blue sky

 

but over all

the game of dreams

is tantalizing;

the promise of nights

 

the height

of the symbol

scattering chaos

on the masses

 

the hopes of youth

remain ethereal

the dance off

into eternity

Yes. I have never felt that the "telegraph" style of English does much justice to the language.
