Expressionist Phrasis Recited

EXPRESSIONIST PHRASIS
Dreams that carry distant memories,
mirrors of the soul in harmony,a wish
to be profound with things from the
psyche,imagination abandoned by reason.
At work within a metaphysical act of
creation,for & of itself unfolds as a surprise
an infusion of soul& spirit,the night
within myself.To convey this essence of
life in flowing abstract forms which
revolve & interlock to make reality
visible.Apparent old truths in a new
light,allegories not portraits,liberate
my sensitivity with moments of the
past that can never remain still and
 never be exchanged for earthly treasure

from Expressionist writings & quotations
Listen to me read this phrasis on youtube under my pen name ichthyschiro

Oh... so beautiful. I must be honest. I came here to tap you on the shoulder, let you know I HAVE posted a poem for you, to you (which I will remove if I have 'got it wrong' ) but I am dazzled by what I just read, and you know I do not give false praise... truly moving and masterly wrought... there is something about the night within myself that made me smile and yet my eyes misted... perhaps it is because night has a no true connotation? Starred, dark, soft, harsh... shy smile, Cyndi
