You breathe for me in times of
agony and hellacious
fears—mergence of our twinning
souls ignite this world.
My love
My beautiful
Soul, your scent of deep love
Lingers, in your essence of life,
As I
Inhale
Eternity
And beyond, feeling your
Blue blood flow under my skin and
My bones
The core
Of my marrow
Knowing that you are my
Healing antidote in my nights
Of dark
Torment
Breathing for me
As your heart beats with mine
A sacred strength forevermore.
Till my
Last breath,
Devoted to
Your existence of love
Hearing the wind call your name ebb
Beneath
Sparks of
A glimmering
Rain of stardust and rings
Of Saturn, our mergence to the
Moon and
Back, and
Everywhere, for
I will wait for you in
The rays of the sun and glisters
Of stars.
mergence of thoughts, look into that mirror,
one that begins underneath your child’s eyes —
slip a look, or like Alice
should your son or daughter slip into nonexistence...
do you see their head as a wastebucket
where you wad up lined paper
throw it into their basket...
could that you see the wrinkles that form
the worry lines like rivulets
all over her...his….non-discriminant face.
the jewel that dreams a longing
like the Nile belonging, hugging the coast.
don’t tower over a youth
like a strong babbling brawn.
look into the clear waters of their mind,
they become clearer all the time
at eye level with their thoughts,
strands behind the ears,
even the pimples on the nose —
suppose you love all of their apropos refrain.
suppose you dream their dreams too…

Topic: Poetess (Mary Wiede)
Form: Vertical Monocrostic
It is as if the Milky Way entered
upon some cosmic dance.
Stroking my mind with images
of astral trance.
Within my mind like an enchanted loom
where trillions of flashing shutters do bloom.
Making a place to weave designs of life.
Hushing and soothing all of the endless strife.
Memories perform serenades
of harmony.
Leaving my emotions roused and achy.
Purple and pink astral hues of aura
burst into my sight.
My spirit it yearns to take flight.
I hear the beat of my mind
my emotions they to begin
to be entwined.
A walk within my mind's layers.
Upon the essence of life's altars.
Where I alone may walk in silence
throwing myself into endless
space mergence.
Wanton soul for exact release
a search within myself for peace.
