Poetic Tour
Go in through the eyes of a poet,
deep into his alphabet mind.
Ideas like flotsam and jetsam
dodge poetry fragments and lines.
Beware the dark shadows of memory,
knife-sharp and bloodied by time
or gentle, orgasmic and sensual
swirling eddies, some without rhyme.
Softly notice the spirit in hiding,
tiptoe past the bruised heart
mending there
knitting poems, pearls strung
on a necklace,
unfinished jewels everywhere.
Take note on your tour of our poet,
the outside no different, you see
but inside, my God, a passion abyss
the poet
the person
the me.
