My Lady of the Song

 

I hear the melodic tone resignate in echos through my vent

floating specks of sparkling lament

a river of feathers dipped in the wind

lowered slowly from a string- your puppet calls to me

gently tickling my ear

circling

down

down

the drain to the deepest crevice of my senses

stimulating my awareness

a creeping lover’s hand over my spine

chills shake

shutters pulsate

body bursts

bumps emerge

from within supple skin

by a rushing wave blown from the wind of your lips

this music must be what happiness sings

from the harps of angels dancing in heaven

bliss winks at me as if I’ve understood something so many shant ever dream

in their carnal heart of hearts

in their words upon pages in books of the ages

when poets knew of a beauty that could not even come as close to the clouds

as the words that escape you now

They enter my home through a vent

in an apartment

where you thought you were alone

where you thought no one was listening

sing on my Ethereal Lyric

sing on

and cut the thick of night like a knife of reverence

emergent of a time when we cry in our sleep

and beg for the light of day

hope has found a name

and we huddle in our box tight constraints

praying she will sing one more word

just one more line

until our heads fall heavy on our pillows and dream

with sweet serene smiles and a peace we have never known

until this day

My Lady of the Song

soar recklessly

boundless to your tree

carry us on your wing

let us taste your talons sunk deep in the moist fruit of freedom’s womb

she kissed her hand and blew

a marinade in the soiree of the swirling night

within the picante leaf of Baguio dreams

she whispered softly

you will never be without me

so we held her in our arms

a calm to our restless hearts

in one lonely song

by my Seranata in the dead of night

This is a stunning piece of work. Very passionate and flowing. Outstanding!

[Michael X]

this is beautifully poetic and magical and has a way of capturing the readers heart,
the wording is stellar, and creates an impression of reading poetry when the world
was but a pearl in the eyes of love, not consumed by politics the way it is now,
another place and time, when the mind wasn't consumed by the modern techs
that seem to have overshadowed the days when poets would whipser words
under moonlight to lovers, to ode in passion what it means to capture the heart,
stunning as always, you remain consistant.

[Robert Luna]

I love the way this poem spills down the page, flooding the senses as it rushes to its end...very Ginsbergesque. Wonderful imagery throughout.
