liminality;
barely there
ask if it matters
care if you dare
believe in impossibility

mind framing liminal spaces
places of liminal mind-frames
filaments between contexts
capturing subtleties as moths

liminally reaching inwards
map of a shady threshold
twilight netherworld border
between now & everywhen
cusp of crisp discovery
intangible as of late
  
liminal during daylight;
stars, fireflies, lanterns
night itself being liminal
colors need brightness
shadow for textures  

whispering worlds
peripheral vision
vibes and feltsense
inner underworlds
embracing hell
reversing it
Exploring the adjective here. Hope this may help my English learners out there.

When I finally had the words,
I cursed those words,
In my mind I put down blurbs,
Drowned my brain with a unique,
Need for pity.

A brisk touch, finality,
destined death stuck here with me,
give me growth, fake artistry,
or something witty.

Come sit down we're amending,
wanting plenty known trite endings
for the people still pretending
to use those wretched hands,
Another round,
and reamending,
to the deafening rescinding,
and lack of brevity,
A lack of sound,
It's unending,
In everything but memory.

Watching as they take their flight.
How they long to use their might,
fighting what they feel is right,
in their misery.
it's just missing pageantry,
no more prophets left at peace.
As we deliberate a niche,
for their eulogy.

So now the question posed to me,
stuck dissenting endlessly,
Lamenting what should now be free,
with no olive tree.
And sure, I know I'll understand
why they all long to find a clan,
empty kinship, ****** hands,
people used as grains of sands,
glass for entry.

Come sit down we're amending,
wanting plenty known trite endings
for the people still pretending
to use those wretched hands,
Another round,
and reamending,
to the deafening rescinding,
and lack of brevity,
A lack of sound,
It's unending,
In everything but memory.

The times we found were stuck on tracks,
Puppets walking, string-held acts,
Answers that we all seek out,
very grimly.
Undermined by empathy,
stuck in our own Haligtree,
wanting more faux artistry, liminally.
Doomed to fade into the tracks,
chasing dreams of vapid stacks,
so we don't bleed straight through the cracks,
into our own sea.

Come sit down we're amending,
wanting plenty known trite endings
for the people still pretending
to use those wretched hands,
Another round,
and reamending,
to the deafening rescinding,
and lack of brevity,
A lack of sound,
It's unending,
In everything but memory.
