"Life is round
curves off a straight line
Enter the race
The taste of paradise
still in your mouth
that no earthly thing
can fill"
These are brilliant lines. I love the references to all that is circular; it feels very karmic to me. The metaphysical flavor here is irresistible.

Nothing can replace our youth and uncertainty except for maturity and acceptance. and that's not allways fun, but it's life, and that's all we have now.
Enjoyed this, Pierre |

Linda, kind of reminds me of a trip I took once, or perhaps
I'm still taking. Metaphorically speaking, wow! -gene. |

Linda,
The images are delivered so directly without any ornamentation and are so appropriate for journey as metaphor; the opening of the final stanza reminds me of Donne's 'at the round earth's imagined corners' and indeed the whole poem has much of the metaphysical in it.

this does great things with my mind, Linda. I love the forward-backwards play of images, plus the juxtaposed square with the round, lines with curves, white with red. Especially like the lines:
The taste of paradise
still in your mouth
that no earthly thing
can fill
... and great resolution in conclusion. Very strong writing and just the sort of metaphysical musing that takes place on these long-distance, mid-night country roads! Love it, thank you. Kate xx |
