I was born

Lorenz

I was born a  runner of life

conqueror  of the eight .

But I speak the wovels 

of the night star 

and other decent consonnants...

I also know cloud dreams ,

because do you know ?

Clouds send messages 

that people in a hurry don't read 

and the moon that wakes up at night

only talks to cats playing on rooftops ...

I was born a warrior strategy sand castles

whose populations are converted 

to the cult of the tide

that will swep them away ....

 I am  the prophet of every day life 

 the astrologer of the moment ,

knocking at your door ...

I can read the scent of  roses 

and get drunk on the alcohol of  words...

Because do you know ?

Only children who refuse to grow up ,

perceive the symphony of flowers

and are visited by Peter Pan !

Little Wendy became a lady 

who no longer believes in Mary Poppins ...

Poor Teddy forgotten at the back of a  cupboard .

I was born a dealer  of seasons ,

and so many illusions ...

 A bit of an actor and so sincere liar ,

 performing the role of my shadow

I am so beautiful  in this shabby mirror !

I was born a musician of tomorrow 

 silkrope walker of inspired dimensions 

deliciously linked to the Devil...

  Don't be afraid guys

  the devil is a good boy !

In the plot of my life the path begins 

at the last hours of comedy .

 But don't believe me ! 

  I am just a fool ...

    It is the fool that speaks wisdom in the king's court. The only one listened to because he can speak his will being only a fool. Great write

      Just humble jester your servant !

    • Ellen Marsell

      The poem is like a confession wrapped in poetry. The images are rich, bizarre, sometimes true. There’s something of the traveler, the storyteller, the old soul who refuses to settle into the mold of time.
      Amazing work!

      • Lorenz

        I am such a young awkward soul my dear !

      • Sealgair

        A poet-philosopher, a magician of words, spinning dreams into riddles and truth into illusion. The devil tips his hat, the wind hums in approval, and forgotten toys whisper their envy.

        Bravo!
