Witness

the effect of poetry

After Witnessing “Eye of the Needle”

she moved in midair

the gesticulations of her body

caused a spiral intonation

grace could be said only in the eye’s view

even an idiot could be awed

the poet though would melt into his awe 

carried somewhere only his soul knows.

What a beautiful journey into the soul of you... how poetry sings over you... through you. A brilliant dance of words.
