Charles Palmer Poem
Shipwreck
Sure fingers grip
Quivering lips caressed by mist
Subversion in an inverse universe
Obtuse life married to a hopeful mantra
Division of these harsh seas I seek
Of this boat captain I am
Water erodes nothing but the iron it's made of
Oxidized severely weakened this handcrafted monster I built is
No anchor or tether
Turn back never
Event horizon and eventuality ring in my ears
Tepid eyes search these hostile waters
Once Id found it
The journey to it was long and egregious
Cast out and banished I yearn for this paradise I'd like to call home
My thoughts are lost in this sea riddled with glass jars
My worst fear
Sunrise illuminates the ferocity of what is ahead
Focus and determination scorch my features
I remember that moment
This hidden paradise eludes me
My vessel Elizabeth
Her vengeance is evident with a glance to my wake
Best for a lasting uncharted effort
Released my grip for another
Firm I grasp
Two clicks
All ahead full

Charles Palmer Poem
--
Unfamiliar
Earth beneath my feet
Tranquility is vast
In my hand it escapes less readily than water
Thoughts seem empty
Sublime in flavor it hunts me down
No teeth or mark to bear
These holdings seem comforting
Without them I meet it
Talented beyond measure
My worthy adversary
Fierce beard and killer smile
Rebuild this citadel
My flesh between your teeth
Disposition numbness to your conscious
Remember that moment
Elegant destruction
Unbecoming solitude
Far from lucid
This feeling creeps
I know you well old friend
Amber alpenglow
Seemingly the earth shakes
My earth is shaking
My temple screams
Forgive me
Weary mind
I straighten these vertebrae
Posture
Every nerve reawakens as if from a coma
Snow revitalize my senses
Resolute
Sirens haunt me at night
Enchanting melodies lick my warm skin
Nightmares
The call of one draws me
It dissolves thy pensive
My tortured sacrarium
Bring me peace
7.62mm
Promise me
Divide the divine
Bringer of judgment
More Amber
I cannot stop
My eyes numb
At last my iris' constrict
Surge of conviction
I will do one last thing with my power
Infinite in fury
One last time brimstone caresses this screen
I give it to you
Harbinger of sunflowers
