Kim Van Breda Poet Alliteration

Water and Glass

WATER & GLASS

Watermarks
immersed in fluids 
weave a whirlpool
stream of words
washing and waning
while
wavy waterways
weep
wet with tears

gurgles
will
gush

Translucent
crystal clear reflects
geometric gems
opaque flute glass
glacial
visible gloss
glimmers
glitter from guilt

Timothy Hicks October 27, 2014 at 1:34 AM I'm re-reading this poem with new eyes. Thanks for revealing to me your intention and inspiration. That three word transition in the middle makes a nice bridge between both sides of the spectrum. Definitely a unique piece.

Tim Smith October 21, 2014 at 3:36 PM Amazing and awesome...all around Krazy Kool Kim :) Kim Van Breda October 23, 2014 at 2:47 AM Thanks Tim.. you know me... krazy/kool and sometimes a bit too honest :)

Justin Bordner October 21, 2014 at 2:07 AM The beautiful aspect of guilt is that it gives one an opportunity to own their actions, accountability is a reward for those unashamed of who they are, unafraid of their future. Your poetic psychology is rich in moral debate Kim...J.A.B. Kim Van Breda October 23, 2014 at 2:49 AM Thanks Justin Rich and moral debates are easy when you put them out from just one side. I would probably fail hopelessly in a live- one-on-one debate--- appreciate your deep insight as always.

Timothy Hicks October 21, 2014 at 12:19 AM You know I'm not really sure what it all means - but there's real originality in your descriptions. Geometric gems? Yes, please. I'm also intrigued by how sparkling that water must be to feel guilty about it... fascinating. Kim Van Breda October 25, 2014 at 4:45 AM Hi Time.... Here's how this poem came to mind... I was thinking of all the things water and glass have in common-- then it turned into an Alliteration with separate stanza's for water and glass--- and well... we don't always drink water out of glasses do we? :) Hence... too much 'bubbly' and its consequences will bring guilt and regret every time.
