The sea


Swirl you origin of unending waves,
you cause of flickering reflections,
rolling over breaking bastions of faith
with their ragged coastline struggle,
unfettered by invisible air,
merging with transparencies.

Singeing what ifs curl and die
at the face of inevitability,
weaknesses regain their names
when liquid is cheap
and messages keep their essence
in breaths of blue tonalities.

The ice that breaks at dawn
forfeits all of your lost intentions,
sallow dreams surface walk
at the gates of surveillance.
Who is the seer at the doorway?
Who is it that baits continuance?

Pink spreads of desire
drift over waves of wisdom
where genetic belonging
is a mere physical drive
into uncharted mellow marshes
of breakable songs.

Sublime as always. The challenges we face by trying to lay intellect over raw emotion, Multiplying and dividing our dreams, our desires and our conflicts and hoping to resolve the equation, to square the circle.

"Pink spreads of desire
drifts over waves of wisdom"

And brings the blues of reason
and candour!
Things when they begin to go asunder,
And resolve begins to surrender,
In comes the sea, and you go down under!

((((hugs Bob)))))

ANOTHER BRILLIANT PIECE, AS USUAL!
