so heavy…


yesterday, I heard the faint voice
of Autumns muse, upon
Summers burning breath ~
and though I ached to respond,
my mind so utterly swollen
from months of thought,
without release,
I slumped here, in my twilight chair,
lacking the strength to lift a pen,
the humid air, my sticky garment,
it weighs so heavy
and thickens my tongue
till autumn lies trapped, behind arid lips
and the parchment before me, cracks open
bone-dry and screaming to gorge itself, on poetry,
but all I want is water…



Sasha ‘08

Can understand this Sasha,
and am definitely feeling it deeply
within my heart. I had to read it twice,
and i will read it again. You express
yourself so very beautifully my friend. (huggs)

The many layers of your talent and constant
growth brings such joy into my space.

Sash, I can read you in any color, any time,
and be certain it will be worth my time.

Wonderful write about not being able to write!

...and that is quite an accomplishment!

Love that you are writing again.

hugs,
andy

~ Hiya Mark,

glad you enjoyed this poem, my friend

I had such writers block, at the time, and just couldn't think
of anything to write, so I followed the advice of a dear friend
and stepped out of the way so my muse could do her thing

thanks for stopping by :)

*hugs*

Sash,

I know what a release this was for you. I told you it was stunning when you read it to me, I haven't changed my opinion, yet on re-reading it I also love the honesty of the anguish it conveys.

Love it Hon,

Peace and love,

Paul.

Hello Sasha

Such a depth and resonance echoing from the page, the frustration of an elusive muse, yet she has quenched my thirst, as your words are just sheer poetic beauty.

~ dear Max, what a wonderful thing to say

such a treat for me to come in and find more comments on this piece
and you are so right about the muse, she is indeed elusive
and truly frustrating at times..lol
I feel her whispering again, so, watch this space :)

A wonderful metaphor on lost love, Sash, truly.
