Anticipating Angels

Neville

Anticipating Angels

 

Here

where I lay

anticipating angels ..

 

While

you lay there

entertaining them ..

 

The

milligrams

no longer count for much ..

    Nothing like a milligram or two of anticipation my friend. You paint such a seductive ;picture as always.......x

        "Here" vs "There." "Anticipating" vs. "Entertaining." I thought this might be a sad poem or a joyous one, but, "Milligrams" draws everything closer. This is about separation (maybe?) as in waiting for one's return. Someone bringing the joy to you. Well, I now see the expectation vs, the carrier of angels (joy). Maybe a homecoming. - Phil A.

            I find my literal mind unable to be sure of the directional movement here, Nev - closer or further away? Am I to make the choice?

            For me almost koan like.

            • Neville



              and you, you old dog should maybe go to the top of the class .. if you mean koan, as in the literal sense, then zen you absolutely maybe should perhaps ..

              but then again, if you mean koan as in the late great Leonard Norman Cohen .. we both still have a long long way to go ..................................................... N 🙂

                Oh I'll not be competing with Leonard, Neville.

                With respect to the original proposition, for me the best strategy will be to contemplate, reach a conclusion and then flip..... could keep me occupied for a goodly while.

                V neat little gem, BTW.

                I felt as if lovers separated by a boundary called heaven…so much romantic and full of fantasy dear Neville…

                • Neville
