    Flying Kites Over Cemetery Gates and Her Journals

    Yr unig wirionedd    Love flew out of your mouth in hieroglyphics  like an invitation to a sky wedding  writ on the wrists of kites     Dawn ghosted,  as a ship’s prow through windows  tangled in curtain rigging     in the way silence enters an emptying room  sunrise gallows hang  heavy...

    • The boat theme in this is eerily good.

      • Thank you. There is something enchanting, and yet, eerie of the ocean. It’s bigger & greater than human kind.

    • The first line immediately sucked me in.
      You do not waste any words with your poetry and you let us see what we see. I really like that in poetry.
      You are an amazing wordsmith.

      • Thank you. Even as a kid, on a rough council estate, always found scribbling to be cathartic.

    • This is beautiful. Favorite stanza

      ” Fallen angels are made,not born.
      Made of feelings oh so torn.
      And negativity slowly form.”

    The Moon on Her Dress

    The moon on her dress corruscates my fingers with cobalt shards of icebergs, rolling fingerprints beyond fabric   Tidal hair breaches the  breakers down her back, the last waterfall on earth weeps for every desire lost at sea   Catching the pearls of her eyes in trawls of my dilated bleeding, if...

    • You make me think…
      It’s cool, I’m good at it!
      I enjoy the complexity of your writes. The vocabulary. The nuanced messages. Even, a word I never knew until you shared it.
      So thank you for the enhanced ability of your writes. It makes me stronger by reading them. And enjoying them.

      • As always, you are too kind Mark. I don’t miss many from DU, but you are definitely on the missed list.

    • This truly shows your intelligence and talent. Very supernacular.

    • I agree with previous commentors on the talent.
      I like the analogies presented in this write.
      Especially fond of the last stanza…reading this makes me feel like I saw her memories
      just before they entombed her under the cathedral floor.
