Poetry: Making New Revelations
Making New Revelations
========================
You won’t stare at me
You won’t aggitate;
You won’t let me bleed
And won’t let my heart ache.
All the passings of grace,
All the favorites erased;
Your side-worn satchel swinging,
Tapping your hip in place.
Hand in hand, fingers entwined,
Now the mess is gone,
The path outlined
The way home’s not long.
Your cheeks a shade of pale,
But lips still in color —
Still close to The Grail,
Left without your mother.
Raining now,
Those tears your flow;
Showing how
To love those you know.
It’s obvious why
You’re still here —
The love you have
Is ever-presently clear.
Take a look around
Take in the air;
Stop a whispered sound
Affix your loving stare.

no i dont think flirting with the cliche and the tawdry is a bad thing unless you subcumb to it with out realizing what you are doing… to produce cliche poetry and proclaim yourself the next emily dickenson or charlotte bronte would be ludicrous… to tell you self, they are fun they are witty and they make me happy, and to embrace and transform the cliche… that is art
