Poetry…
Conduit
Of the truth
Speaker
Of the almighty
Silence
Last synapse
Of a feeling
Lost
Nerve ending
Of a forgotten
Dream
(Villanova Pennsylvania: May, 2016)
Stigmata
Wringing feelings
Like a sponge…
The words dripped down
From my lips
Onto the page
—staining my soul
(Villanova Pennsylvania: May, 2016)
Is Your Aria Born Alone
Is it first the
Music
And then the
Words
Or do the
Words
Come first?
Elton John says it
Works
Either way
Bob Dylan’s
Words create
The meaning
That Ray Charles
And
Jimi Hendrix
Explode
Is all timing
Real
Or just
Imagined?
Is the structure
True or
False?
Do your words
Beget the
Melody
Or is your
Aria
—born alone?
(Villanova Pennsylvania: May, 2016)
