When Tender Notes Weep (@Onestoppoetry’s Friday Poetically)

Posted in One Stop Poetry, Poetry Reading with tags , , , , , , , , , , on January 14, 2011 by dustus

When tender notes weep
Angels shriek throughout no sleep
Above shredding, cutting
8th notes erupting
She knows my love’s nothing
Truth bared beyond me

As rainfalls bleed, puddling greed
Opportunistic admittedly
Spilled guts, fallen dove
Lies lead history, I’ve had enough
Unbalanced, out touched
These sing songs of Love
Strongest than most tranquil drugs… 

Ineffectual odes to never mind
Did move me beyond, until out of time
While you are not nirvana
And I’m lost inside my mind

“Swann’s Way” 

Perception floods life
Untangled link chains
In search of lost time
Nature flows framed
