Life is idle talk
Do you want to read my poem?
It is not available
Try again later
Life is idle talk
Do you to see me physically?
I am not available
Try never again later
Her chatter annoyed her Queen one day
Afflicted she could only echo what others say,
In time she just wasted away,
rejected by the lover of her choice,
'til she became,just a voice.
The legendary nymph Echo,her lover was Narcissis
weaving threads of half remembered sadness
to mend a cloak of fears
wrapping twisting webs of whispers
wet with long forgotten tears
They sit and mumble to each other
trying to listen as they rock
Eyes asquint through lowered lashes
They rest a spell from idle talk
The magic of the passing moments
Marked with slowly rocking chairs
Rolling on in murmured cadence
Three aging sisters splitting hairs
Oh, my faces and image of mine,
They aren’t having some likeness of yours
I’m not prince I’m not master of mine
with the oil or gold, it’s not loss.
I won’t freeze on the pictures of glance
in editions of fashion and vogue
Royal parties won’t take off the suns
from my cheeks after their idle talk.
I’m the same as I was in the past
And the crows fly above my poor head
I don’t need their falsehood, I’m guest
in this show, save your crown for next lad.
