Mimesis

I know languages count by silent lexicons I know oceans measure by waving hands I know serpents poison by miseries I know clouds mould by whispers I know rivers clutter by sediments I know oaks augur by heights I know blood oils by fossils I know epics endure by echoes I know ashes wither by winds I know castles coil by curls I know hells hasten hubris I know I know, my ignorance by ignorance

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.
