Etchings of Love: a Subtle Afterimage
On the canvas of life, your signature lies, Etched onto my granite heart, and the ever-changing skies. Your essence, turned my primary colours, to vibrant schemes, And now, in every hue I see that it’s you tinting my dreams. You recoloured my world, breathed life into grey, Transformed rigid contours into a graceful bright ballet. Energy was no more just a...

Etchings
ETCHINGS “Let me show you my etchings,” he said, With a euphemistic smile. The sort of situation, Where she ought to have run a mile. But, as an art student, she reckoned she might Have something useful to gain, And, at that moment, her mother’s advice, Never entered her brain. He took her down to his basement flat And gave her a glass of wine. Then...

Etchings of Sunlight
Etchings of sunlight, Shatter a glass world, A glass heart. Melting the grains, To create, To deceive the eyes, To make love. A puddle of molten glass, Is held, Shaped, And without meaning to, Reformed delicately, Lightly, Lovely... So lovely... He can't stand it, The feelings that surge inside of him, Of lust, Of vanity, But mostly of Pure Unadulterated Affection. I believe there is a word for it. No, Not a word, A name....

I hope to grace this page today With musings from my soul And write between the lines The greatest story every told In trails of crimson etchings Bleeding from an open heart As line by line my inhibitions Simply fall apart A spirit free from earthly bonds Oblivious to time Whilst drifting through the annals Of something so sublime As daylight turns...

On the cold harden stone carvings names remain, Charcoal etchings sketching’s, rubbing’s of forgotten history, Textured rows of this human bone yard called a cemetery. Rough carved gray monuments to life’s fragileness, Isolation chambers of remembrance lie hidden beneath This earthen soil, as for-get-me=knots floral arrangements Garnish these graves of emotional attachments. Fossilized vessels of mankind’s historical legacy, Layers of preservation...

Sacred Etchings
Walls stripped bare of time. Symbols shinning through moon phases piled as sand. Carvings of past hunters speak a bewildering code, of lives washed from history. Meaning vanished. Impression conveyed. Time has left the message, and betrayed the creator. His flesh gone language scattered. A people swallowed by disease, and famine, storm and drought, war and disunity. The only evidence of heritage streaks placed on canyon walls. undeciphered pictographs of anonymous origin. And yet...

Ivory Etchings
watching as twilight crept over the brothers and stars being re-birthed to fortify the Great Wall street lights line to ignite, the shimmering black mantel concealing azimuth, and seductive ebony lips slide,over the lamp once more, A visage of ivory looks upon earth on the cusp is where your found, a palled specter drifting shadow to shadow passing as a will-o-wisp of ebony vistas, always out of touch with the sense of perception lulled...
