Velvet Underground

Velvet Underground

A Poem by Mario Vitale
"

Can you visualize a world hidden under ground yet having dragons, king & queens. The excellence of this piece hits the smooth variation hidden in a dream.

"
 

 

there's salt in the air by the ocean without a care

fell beneath the tears of the scale of obscurity

in the Spring the leaves felt through with cadence of illumination

one vibration permeates the fragile structure in my egg shelled mind

but I found a place unlike no other away from the honest decorum

its in the velvet underground with dungeons filled with dragons

the peril of its swift exploits resonate their without a single care

an abrupt front having kings and queens and a court jester to

perhaps I have bitten off far more then I could ever chew

built on a city of gold as time unfolds through the duration of the underground

out of the fever pitch silence there is brought about resilence

 

painted picture by the kings quarters in solvent resolution

down the corridor the villagers are entertained by the pious court jester with juggling

feathers are swept beneath the palace gate in a swirl of emotions.

out of the wood work came a polished fair maiden strong in her delivery

wanting to see the dragon blown up in its fullest extacy

after a quick look she was hooked drawn upon the nature of the beast

Both the king and queen had a magic wand with a heavenly song

 

through the velvet underground there is praise for song in heightened fancy

the dragon was soon defeated by a noble man with a sword

cutting off its head he fell head long dead

this is the place where dreams are made a way of escape

from the hustle and bustle of our everyday existence learn to shun the resistance

out of every circumstance you can take part in the dance as you explore the Velvet Underground.
