Gyrate Around Axis

the world is splitting open at my feet, part seven.

Gyrate Around Axis. 

 

Placed on a swivel.

Twine wrapped, an uneasiness

in my stomach.

When I see your cheeks

fluttered ----- 

this cardinal girl. 

 

Picnic wrapped in

plaided dreamscape.

Sapphire sky------------------

unfold. 

In my arms I hold,

embryonic buzz

for you. 

My dreamt love. 

Prohibition

swindles our loins,

illusionary cannot 

feel…

But I feel.

I long.

I wonder.

I am. 

Yet I am not. With you

I might of been. 

Rain: cataract.

Ashen, coiled clouds,

whirlwinds swoon. 

  Soon, I'll be gone

blueness-trance, 

gyrate around axis. 

And you will be gone 

as well. Receding.

Lost abeyance. For us,

we walk for now. 

Until then.

you manage excellent imagery without being schmaltzy (which i hate). the vibe differs from the tragedy that is going on.

Powerful piece man. well done

[Emerald Seas]

I'm a little lost on this one. I think it is referring to a budding relationship where desires have yet to be fulfilled, still in the awkward stages of courting, but I could be completely off base.

[Sam Gregory]

Very good vocab, ur imagery paints pictures in my head. Keep up the good work :)

[Dayran]

I'm on a wobble on this. It dawned on me that this is a mother-type event that fancies the possibilities of life's perfection and in a burst of enthusiasm, wants to give birth to it. Then I thought its weird, it can't be .... then I thought its possibly so. There you have it.

The imagery is so wonderful! The words you chose to use just make this piece absolutely marvelous. Beautifully written, a great piece.

Absolutely confusing in every single way...What do most of these words mean??? LoL I'm kidding Cole...This is nothing short of a gorgeous paradise of tropical words wrapped around a forest of rythym and meaning...Picnic wrapped in plaided dreamscape, embryonic buzz...The birth of certain feelings are such a beautiful thing and you write them in such a way that floors me..Excellent use of words and a terrific poem worth reading again and again....Great job Cole
