Again Distance Slips

Again distance slips
Wrinkles the universe’s face
from eyes of dusk descends a startle 
shed poem’s water down the drain
and ancient tales( fairytales) become ghosts 
riding dead light
Narrating on the banks of Tigris, Euphrates rivers and Fayhaa (damascus)
Time bastard’s Puzzle
once again believing prophecy
Lives Undressing in front of death mirrors 
And the light raises across the sky
Angels leaving Earth 
Carrying whiteness of basil blemished in perfume 
And the remnants of purity..

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
