silent movie

silent movie

lip reading your soft parchment

i run my fingers along your edges

typeset imprints like tiny freckles

cover your page with my adoration

we are poems in transition

revisions eternal

never an end punctuation

just more perusal

of what's in our hearts

we are theme

we are dream

we ride in the carriage

of an old Underwood 

stressed and unstressed vowels

who made a vow

to write upon each other's 

stationery core

the stationary love

we memorize with rote reasoning

even when we know our hearts' script

can be remembered 

without words.

[VALORMORE DE PLUME]

Wonderful metaphor playing on the silver screen this evening. I almost hear Beethoven, rocking the ivory in the orchestra pit.

This one says so much about our "times" and us (our selves) as we are now.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

thank you, Chris.
