Nomad

Like a nomad trespassing woodland's edge, I rip moonbeams apart ; drain the pulp of my marrow , shapeless— wandering along tracks of old interludes in mid Autumn's light. And as the elixir of a world dilutes flawed refrains through a self-alienation endured; a pounding gust turns midnight into a wayward trance. I was so close to the rhythm of myself, this navel unbuttoned and numb by aimless wanderings still, still...I took absence of me; again. 11/13/2015 The Journey Begins Matt Calliri's Contest

Yi - Outstanding, Nette. I believe I could read this over and over and find more and more meaning each time. Your poem is so deep that each line deserves thought and reflection as so much is poetically revealed ... CayCay Yi - love it

Wow! This raw self-examination comes from the heart. Astounding poetry with distinct, primitive imagery!
