Final Publications for 2019 with SLM
Truly, yet defiantly the theme Of your nest was soaked in lettered mystery and changing tunes. This is the tale of the broken bird: Taken, measured, crested with fetters that left marked closets. But, I imagine the clustered Feathers where everything marked simulating similitude. What if we didn’t make wings On the floored petals? What if we didn’t make home On the flawed petals? What if I rather call the way, Will you unbreak our elevations? Will they hold your mistaken flights? Replace it with wild touches, greasy pecks, tumultuous chirps Which finally ushers (one, if not all) of us in(to) brokenness. If your lip falls, pick your eyes, If going becomes loitering,
Light the nest, next to freedom. But, you know our birds will Sing our tale, of brokenness, mental fullness, trembling jarringness Of soaring, to maybe inside from outside, Meaningless shaped-still clouds, Of greasy pecks, the tale of the broken bird. *** This Poem is Inspired by a track from Ambient’s Relax music genre, Groundfold’s “The Tale of the Broken Bird” “I Know Why Your Mother Cries” (A Collection of Poetry) will be available in Print this autumn, 2019.
