Something and nothing

I'll write all of my poems to the spinning whirl within which I begin translation into being cajoled again to try for unmarred existence tip of tongue unpoisoned whites of eyes unwritten on no residual embedding of fear stacked into my bones take this shallow breath shadowed mind, leaden self let it wear away shed layer upon time time upon layer unravel and undo until I'm a welcome arrival at the reverse of the beginning prior to the weight of all there was to come guide me and thee by my scrawled hand

Ah i absolutely love the way youv played around with words here to phrase thoughts in such a moving manner. So many brilliant lines especially love the echo in lines “shed layer upon time time upon layer “ that really stood out for me. Sometimes we need that time to unravel and undo and we wish we could go back in time. And this is right now that time of the year where i do get some of these thoughts! The opening here too in a excellent entrance! Pleasure reading your poem. Sending you light
