1.
inexplicable things
that we sense
like wings fluttering
in the shadows
or chest rising with the effort
of feeling
crystal chandeliers
so fragile in the wind
shards of memory
piercing the stillness
and screams silenced
with agony
the lashes to our eyes
hurt and bleed
come again
and wound me
so close to breaking
I can see the cracks.
they widen
and begin to disintegrate
the holes patched
the pain "forgotten"
(as if things
like that can just go away)
I see light
cold and clear through dry eyelashes
whispers in the ink
and music that sings
2.
inexplicable things
darling and sweet
unmistakable
…and there
I see the light in your eyes
I hear your warm heart
I know your thoughts
…I feel you here
there it is
on the raven's wings:
happiness…
on the feathers of pain
I can see the black
far away
but always close
as a dream (nightmare)
I am not lost
I can see beauty
light is fun to watch…
dancing in the eddies
hands are warm
inviting and open
new for me and my still heart
who are you?
a new word is mine
never mine before
glass – fragile with color prisms:
happy.
3.
inexplicable things
so incomprehensible
and wrong
opposite and backwards
impossible to understand
I don't…
a paradox
brows furrowed
flashes and color
exploding
rampant, run wild
and be beautiful
yes or no?
stutter in silence
numb and trapped
words with no explanation
behind the scenes
a fairy (or elf?)
pulls the strings
marionette or voodoo doll?
highs and lows
intense beyond measure
tears and smiles
either or, or even together
what is this creature?
the piano plays on
rising notes
in question
