Lady Labyrinth Poet Free verse

Sung In

"Sung In"



We are notes 
on the tongue 
of God 

Each of us words
in a never ending 
sentence

Music is math
God breathes us in 
out of Time

We are but droplets
past and present
participles

wet behind the ears
unable to hear 
the full melody

of
"what is this song?"

We move 
punched out 
perfect and yet wrong

holy and unholy
chords pulled tight
and we are automata running

under the pedals
of bare feet bleeding
playing a symphony

We do not fully understand
and we are slowly 
beings being 

low tides
caught in the ripped veil
sung in

blind
unseeing

(LadyLabyrinth / 2020)

Frederic Parker July 11, 2020 at 3:28 PM And I thought we were just here to supply the plants with carbon dioxide...felt like a little humor today my poetic friend, because I know God has a sense of humor he created us... Lady Labyrinth July 11, 2020 at 7:09 PM Usually, when people are frightened and confused, humour usually lifts. I, of all people get that Parker. My thoughts on the current state of things. Of course something/someone must have a sense of humour, for we are all a big joke.

Robert Lindley July 11, 2020 at 11:01 AM None are more blinded than are we mortals my dear friend. We are blinded by our arrogance, our inherent evil, our sins, our lusts, our greed , our vanity , our pride , or desires , our dreams our embracing the ever growing darkness is the world! Love your poem-- a fav.. God bless.. Lady Labyrinth July 11, 2020 at 7:09 PM We are misguided souls already ghosts in the Bardo. Waiting for what we do not really know or yet understand. Maybe the "Someday".
