Ouija Vu

I hit the ground running
Feet flat on the clouds
As fast as Mercury
With broken wings
Light as an elephant
Heavy as a feather
Where's the ouija board
Deja vu
Deja vu
Day- light view
Not needed whispered
Purple dragonfly dressed in rags
Not needed butterfly
Dressed in silk hummed
Cloud-light shining brightly in my eyes
Blinding me
Seeing eye dog ahead
On a one-dollar bill
Follow me he said
A message I have
Ouija board ?
Deja vu
You swallowed the ouija board
Message inside you said
The viole(n)t-eyed cat with two tails
Soft as quills
Mercurious  sent me
Skimming the earth
Message inside
For better
Or worse
First or last
Now or later
Forever
Until the next
Deja vu
Deja vu
Orange light flashes
Shivering neon
Message must wait
Today's not the day

I really like this poem, your rhymes are amazing and so is your vocabulary. The style is really great. It flows very well. I like when you said light as an elephant and heavy as a feather ;)

"The viole(n)t-eyed cat with two tails
Soft as quills" - I like that :)

Ouija boards - "For better or for worse" ? :O

Fascinating write. Yes, LTNS!!

This sounds like Dr. Seuss meets Kierkegaard after a dinner of fine mushrooms and wine. "Anxiety is the dizziness of freedom"

Getting the feeling of through the looking glass a little on this one. I like density and the lack of stanzas because it means every time I read it my attention reveals different patterns within patterns. Its a good re-reader it'll haunt me for awhile. Sublime imagery. I dearly love dragon flys too. I once had a dragon fly come to me when I was teaching kids about bugs. I was holding up a flashcard with dragonfly on it and it came into the room and landed on the card. Of course the kids understand how nature communicates directly with us and their little faces just lit up. Good to meet you. I'll go with my intuition and friend you on the basis of that poem alone best wishes. Keep me posted. Regards.

This seems like such a brilliant dream of mythic proportions... the light and movement and dance of minded thoughts reflected.. refracted... Powerful and wondrous to read.

I have always enjoyed the visual trip you take me on when I read your work. This piece is so full of differing perspectives with a rich sense duality. You weave words in a way that no other can. This is going to the library so I can read it again!
