"The Colour Guards" Heaven came close to me today I flirted with the idea of it outrageously The Colour Guard kept changing The metaphysical poet spoke automatic its message through me it visualised some kind of new Nirvana shining through electric spectral colours held aloft by the containment emeralds the ghost writer enticing me to tear from the limb most high the gilded eye of mind ignites through crystalline from the lowest of low born dreams the sweetest green apple of its eye so I took a bite and full-bodied what was living inside the skin of me metamorphasized I came close to heaven today it flirted with the idea of me outrageously it spoke to me in cloudy colours class not out yet for long lost fellows more lessons coming in each room by door behind all numbers the answers found within (LadyLabyrinth / 2022) "The metaphysical poets were men of learning, and, to show their learning was their whole endeavour; but, unluckily resolving to show it in rhyme, instead of writing poetry, they only wrote verses, and, very often, such verses as stood the trial of the finger better than of the ear; for the modulation was so imperfect, that they were only found to be verses by counting the syllables... The most heterogeneous ideas are yoked by violence together; nature and art are ransacked for illustrations, comparisons, and allusions; their learning instructs, and their subtilty surprises; but the reader commonly thinks his improvement dearly bought, and, though he sometimes admires, is seldom pleased." nirvana noun (in Buddhism) a transcendent state in which there is neither suffering, desire, nor sense of self, and the subject is released from the effects of karma and the cycle of death and rebirth. It represents the final goal of Buddhism. "Listening is all well and good", she said. "Watch and learn, read between the lines; Morse Code, a gift of Love - for you," she said.
