Prismed Face: An Abstraction

*Please note: 
I'm not in the throes of sadness.  Just a write for another poetry site.
~~~~~~~~~~

My eyes are half closed for I fear to see
what worry and anxiety have made of me.
All day I've been twisted out of shape,
wincing at my disheveled appearance.
Life has taken a toll with its interference.

My mirrored face is a

A SURREAL ABSTRACTION

compelling
    dreamlike
 captivates
&unfolds
infuses
 with
the dynamic
hybrid

 interpretation

 expressiveness
  in
a mixed
    narrative
upon
a
canvas
of
 the
 atmospheric
recesses
of
 the subconscious

where
inspiration

&

into
 the symbolic

The Know

I dread thee soul.
The bold it rows,
Perchance, A mistake.

I see yee soul.
The form it takes,
It appears to be...of a lake.

A lake to all, that i endow,
To all of which, that i do wish.
Maybe you are...indeed,
For me the lake.
For i know yee soul,
The woo's it gives,
Its epistemology,
Knitting me,
Making me, myself...

Fire and Steel and Stardust

Eyes of fire and steel
A heart full
The rhythm going numb

A boy cries a year younger
Beside me
And a year younger 
Than I was -

Except me,
It is cruel for any body
To feel the longing

Or the falling -
Down - the rabbit hole
Into a field of prairie smoke

I'm in a field of prairie smoke - 
And it's velvet, it's

POST-PAINTERLY ABSTRACTION

automated
    processes
slotches
  of colour

intensity
 with 
   minimum
          means
brimming
with
   symbols
awakened
breathing
charged
   with context

affinity
   to openess
hovering
 with musicality
in
playful variants

profoundly.  
Impressed
  blurred
        surfaces
in
miniature
     figurations
emphasised
 

Abstraction a Freed Verse

ASTRACTION 

unpredictable
intersecting lines
 swaths of colour
 added
by a  chance
autonomous
process

reflexive
   echoing
intensive
 to coincide
in response

Abstraction of Nature

ABSTRACTION OF NATURE
absurdity
  becomes enticing
rejoicing in  symmetry
imitated
by the conspicuous
&novel
enshrined
in mystery
with a freshness
      liberated
by the
 profound

   an influence
in balanced sensuality
decadent even
in a
  relaxed stance
akin
to  a sentimental
  ethereal figure
an
acquaintance
   outside of self
&
appreciation
   out of need

THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by the enigma so derived

A Man Who Talks of Abstraction

colour 
    enlivened concepts 

an inner necessity 
 of      geometrics
 minimalised 
      paraphrased

 visualisations 
 to captivate  
in
sparse curves
              &circles  
of
 emancipated
     

Abstraction At Large

permeable
             layers
brown&grey

white light
       lineages
in the
                infinite
moving

creation
            leitmotiv
uncontaminated

Verse Freed In Coloured Abstraction

Pastel
Burnt sienna
Tinged the golden flame-
Reflecting raw umbery on the
Red earth

Unseen
A bluish buff
Grizzled a silver grain
Into lavender scented
Shadows

He left his favorite asset with me to calm down the silent pain.

Abstraction

Woman with spineless dresses 
And men with sleeveless shirts,
Boys with Scary custom's 
And girls with gentle toys,
Crying babies, and singing cats 
Dogs born from the dark:
So they bark to be heard,  

No bones and whistles for wolves,
No man's best friend?
Just howls at the moon,
Venus upon the eastern sphere's  
Standing naked on water and

The Impossible Abstraction

Be, will be
the memories of a galaxy
an impossible subtraction
from an abstraction of reality

Divide, split, separate
isolationisms dependent
breaks every concept 
of whole

Evolutionary individuality
fractal conscious of
minds universality
divine focus of

The eternities
precipitations of life

Singularity, will
will be
the footprints of you
standing beside 
an infinite sea

The abstractions of God
from reality

Only one foot upon
the beach of creation
your wings dipped within
the singular pulse of life

Will

Abstraction of War

I crept cautiously down the stairs, I looked at my watch, it was almost 6:30, dinnertime. My heart began to beat quickly, my chest filled with dread. I tiptoed to my place at the table. I kept my eyes down, looking at my hands, not saying a word. My dad entered the dining room; he
