Blanching Poems - Poems about Blanching

Shifting Frames

...The glass once lucid
now deflects glow differently.

A chuckle clenched in the wind,
blanching and flaming.
Where were we?

Footprints echo, retreat, advance
sagging floor, missing nails.

Astir

...
Iridescent crow wings
scatter ice particles, patches of air clatter.

Grackle claws engrave the frozen creek,
small owls emerge from blanching shadows,
fieldmice burrow into snow drift...

London

...Shoreditch clung to its ruin
Its roughhewn gate staring out at corpses
And the clutch of travellers heading from the fields,
The shepherds rambling onwards,
The herders with their slow-moving cat...

Risk and Riot

...Cold choice, listen to the voice!
Waver filleth all!
He who suffers Sin annoys?
Blanching light, thy pall.

Hated minutes of each day!
Flickering in time!
Doubt belies all disarray!
Drop and ...

HALLS OF AMENTI 2

...HALLS OF AMENTI 2

Doom dark in the 
Halls of Amenti
whole families are 
dropped down drains 
covers shut tight
no pink flamingos  
not a single orange 
tree in sight

They grope along hol...

Doubting thomas doth hanker to live in or share

...Doubting thomas doth hanker to live in (or share)...
a house without gossips nor gonifs with the missus

Maybe a pair of stray eyes
will alight on my post
might subsequently manifest destiny

Summer Rain

...Summer rain from darkened clouds pouring
Like the windows of heaven have opened
After the blasting heat, so welcomed, adoring,
Waves of hell from Satan’s seething broken,

No lightni...

First Light In the Star Fields

...A stone in the backyard,
roughly cratered like the moon,
a black stone
heavy with ancient cinders – 
fire chipped.

Could it be a meteorite
or maybe a bit of cold star-fire?
It’s so very old,...

Tangible success or inner gratification,
Were the choices in life that I once faced.
My life could remain just an aberration,
And the ...

Mirthless Cries

...Every night I lay here alone,
remembering; wailing.
I love the night shadows:
it’s all about the stillness.

There are no stars out tonight,
only a lonely, empty sky.
The hue-less wind passes,...

Harvest Inferno

...Take me to the tombstone 
let me touch the gray stone that stands
where life could not
I will put my face to that touchstone of deaf thunder,
What happened  to your breath baby brother,
what hap...

39

...No truer truths can take me too far from here
Myself alone now viewing what I see as true
Torn from within an inner sepulcher once caked with fear
Made truer now by old offences now found few
I s...

Songs of Suppression

...Celebratory stories of devotion to depression
are told not only in absence of light,
hiding,
but also in excess of dark,
fearing.

And yet we share an even less spoken silence
blanching out

Sublime 2

...Now nowhere near
Dazzle dream dear


Oops options oil
Boom blanching boils


Prize pretty pace
Symbols steer space


Query quaint quest
Feel flashy fest


Rich ripples rouse

Standing In One's Own Shadow

...As blossoms come forth
from covered seeds,
by blanching the shell of self
in time
the dawn of true understanding
will brighten effortlessly
from within-
rising high,
transforming to Light
