: Excursions in Philosophy

on Wednesday, July 14 @ 08:31:45 UTC
perv writes:: " Watching you sleep
He realised the inviolable beauty of stillness
And his restless soul soothed
With the sun as it steadily climbed
Above the tenements of East London
And he knew then
That home is where you are
As the first shards of daylight
Cast arresting shadows on the paleness
Of her sublime face
The reverie subsided
And he rested his clumsy hand
On her smooth , walnut oiled haunch
And he longed to assimilate her
To somehow squeeze some of her mystery
Into his own translucent soul
Again it is only short so this space is completely obsolete i feel it necessary to put a joke here
so here goes#
'what is black and screams?'
Stevie wonder answering the iron! "

Re: Excursions in Philosophy (Score: 0) by Anonymous on Wednesday, July 14 @ 08:46:11 UTC | | this again is amazing, perv, you are the only fella on this site who has any idea about what poetry/ verse is about you are the lineal successor to the imagists and it is surely about time you had some of this shit published it is that fucking good |
Re: Excursions in Philosophy (Score: 0) by Anonymous on Thursday, July 15 @ 13:34:41 UTC | just reading this back, i realised how fucking good it is
the way you alter between, her and you it is inspired it really blurs the lines between your own experience, i.e the object juxtaposed against the edward hopper painting from which the title is taken. unfortunately it is wasted on these suicidal peasants
the last line really evokes the confused, frightened look on the mans face and has helped me to understand it in terms other than isolation but maybe in exultation |
