Ambrosia

 

For the need to live and to understand why I do so,

I climb heaven and connect to the protruding Intravenous devices.

Having added my self to a grand equation,

I stared down…

Watching earth, my denominator.

 

For the sake of nature, I obey the will to survive.

I anchor under God’s table to rob the crumbs.

To steal even the wine;

That which he cried through his mask,

Now perforated by clouds; by-products of my exhalation;

Divine Larceny….

And the hiding of it.

I think the name was the perfect start
the diction is definitely priceless
a true divine larceny

[Emily B]

it may be too big for me to comment on this morning

"His table's spread too high for us

Unless we dine on tip-toe.

Crumbs fit such little mouths," Dickinson

It is a fine piece of work. And I imagine I will come back to it on another day when I feel taller.

brilliant...loved every line, but the ones i point blank applaud are
"Watching earth, my denominator."
and
"I anchor under God's table to rob the crumbs."
