papered white, there is one wall in his room of spines for a muse. His beautiful abstraction ~ carved & polished ~ hung as his hourglass; Inverting light & time with a resonance of understanding as beads of fiction fall*
*Colouring other walls vibrant these spines shine with jewels imbibing his souls' faceted light with hope
* * free * * her * * *
You decide, an Hourglass or a Keyhole?
When gifted with an empty 'box' to fill recently, the poetess' curiosity found Hope remains... Inside :)
... an extract taken from Hesiod ~ Works and Days & a lyric from Adele ~ Rolling in Deep http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYEDA3JcQqw
"Only Hope was left within her unbreakable house, she remained under the lip of the jar, and did not fly away. Before [she could], Pandora replaced the lid of the jar."
"Turn my sorrows into treasured gold.... you'll pay me back in kind, and reap just what you sow"
