Marina Abramovic---I Am Striving To Look Into Your Soul

MARINA ABRAMOVIC---I AM STRIVING TO LOOK INTO YOUR SOUL

I’m in, I’m there let yourself go;
I AM STRIVING TO LOOK INTO YOUR SOUL
Each of us, look at us;
I see;
Sit down before
I look at you blink twice;
I stare as I share
My soul vision
My soul opens to you;
Through my eyes I view;
Look into my eyes;
Witness to my soul;
Blink once if you’re alive
Twice if I’ve entered;;
Look into my eyes;
The entrance to my soul;
Together we’ll stare;
Is it heaven or hell?
Gawking at my face;
Look into my eyes
Seemingly out of place;
Piercing a smirk;
My souls giving birth;
In Awe…
I stare
Yes, I’m here
Them eyes demise..
Demonized???
Stare a tear shed;
My eyes bleed a clear breed…
Are you there? (Here?)
Blink twice;
Shaken head;
Reach out hold hands embrace;
Captives glances captured claps approval
Release departs;
Wipe those tears away from your eyes and heart;
Inhale chosen eyes;
Open to watch and share others glance and stare;

Powerful images and beautiful lines, James. Unfortunately it was longer than the 25-line maximum. What a shame I could not place your poem.

James, very good, I found it hard to figure out what was going on in the video, so your poem really helped. Best of luck in the contest, but this reads like a winner to me ~
