Poem Artwork

it will thin, while it expands
 
One tear drop witihin each hand
My palms a mural of dry land
Creases guide and pool the moist
There before my breath or voice
 
Lines define as crest and seal
Fortune scribed as yet unreal
While l unschooled in reading fates
It scribes and glides as it translates
 
In the center of one palm
Cradled by the pad of calm
There it rests, until it dries
As a life, neglected dies
 
Opened tilt of other hand
It will thin while it expands
Until the spill of liberty
 
Absorbed by air....
 
One part part of me

As calming as the falling tears this poem is so soothing to think about. The pictures that your verbal images conjure up though a little sad are so real.

Powerfully eloquent and perceptive.

Anita ... I will reiterate, you seem to have gone through some kind of a portal. You are not the writer you were three months ago.

In poetic vision ...

Was a very eloquent poem. However powerful the overall message, the content was layed over the readers eyes in such a weightless manner. The contrasting technique to contectual message was a nice touch, and I felt like it added a unique dimension to the piece. The rhyme scheme, however much I can't stand them, work out nicely for this. You did a great job of making content your main focus, apposed to bending over backwards to accomadate for an aspect of poem that is entirely irelovent. Overall as I said before, I enjoyed the read. From the image you selected to the content in itself it was a well written piece of work.

You've gotten quite profound here, Queenie - and this is a marvelous piece.
