My blue love weeps In a field of silver. I think to comprehend the mute sunlight, Dry wind through the field In winter's cold disposition, Lovelorn to the night. Weeping in blue love Poaring to a glass Of vermilion and gold, In this fever dream swelling, In this night descending.
Your eye settles beyond. Into a cold country lit in briiiance, a space in time... Separation. Drawing inside the other. I dream of carnivals in moonlight, Exploding in a million suns.
I wake to cold country. It takes me to kingdoms Of long ice cycles and deep shadow. Night and sun and cold...cold. The carnival explodes in Supernova, Falling to a place Of water. You enter it's wake" Carrying you where it will.
This poem is a more disciplined work in the style of mid 20th Century poet's like Theodore Roethke, who was a poet mentor to me.
