Brian Davey Poet Rhyme

Never Home

Never Home



Hollow shelter, echoed treasure body of no chest
Mud twig tied, soft leaf cushioned hungry unbirded nest

Shallow blue, lonely waters, silent wave of broken crest
Direction who, sun drenched through the dying, dying west

Orgasmic lights, city nights, a million people know what's best
Unprotected alone the unsafe zone, even at home I feel like a guest

Andrea Dietrich May 29, 2016 at 5:23 PM a dark and mysterious one this seems to be, Brian. I enjoyed the imagery!! Brian Davey May 31, 2016 at 4:24 AM Happy that you got to envision a little of my darkness! lol

Probir Gupta May 29, 2016 at 1:25 AM How we view our milieu is significant... I know a poor auto-rickshaw driver whose world is beautiful... Here in this strikingly written poem an individual alienation stands out in a phrasal presence so compelling that a sensitive reader has to go through, pause for quite some time, read again... Brian Davey May 31, 2016 at 4:23 AM Thank you Probir for such kind words and I am pleased this poem you took a liking to
