Seven Ways to Speak

I.
Lingering thoughts submerged upon this ink spilled
parchment; and still nothing emerged as to what other
ponderings were fondled underneath linings and linage

Turpentine notes cascading beyond tethers—not, before
an emptied porcelain fragrance

 

 

 


II.
Distilled poetics finally knew where to travel however
was the journal scribed, its destination acknowledged
nothing more than whispers inside a wind- a breath

Windows burst opened, wafting heirlooms of betiding;
speculated vision now became blurred yet sight wasn’t
needed to view beyond granulated silks and coursed sands…

“I” was waiting for “it”

 

 

 


III.
Diaries going unearthed, voices speaking although
the paraphrased, transmigrated lines went devoid of
luster…

Thus, confessions were born.

And punctuated progression fell forward in specs of
teary-eyed liquidation, “we”
identified utterances unwritten
beneath time-spun traditions


 

 

 


IV.
Deliverance, that has become the recognized declaration
for this moment

Thereafter this ended, these intravenous veins would
soon be consumed in the company of acceptance- accompanied
by inquisitions throughout sequestered recollections.

    wow for it is the purest of love that we would truly spill out our everlasting being that consumes our melodies within our hearts and minds - our life our reason to be - yet in unbridled silence just the moment in time that seems to last an infinity our world seems at an equilibrium of space that even the stars seem to shine brighter just cuz of the love that encapsulates us from a smile. thank you for entering and many blesings always xx
