Do Apples Fly?

Should she set it aside?
Where comes this pain?
Immutable thud, last refrain.
Do apples fly? Is she insane?
Oh, bitter mind…

(Wasted thinking, untimed rhyme…)

Would it do any good?
Would it make her grow cold?
The future’s gone past,
like apples with wings.

(…jungled meanings, time to die.)

Is she once again mute?
Is a world lost to her?
Apples don’t fly.

(Oh, brittle mind…)

"Do Apples Fly?" is a profound writing that has a clear picture, but at the same time it is a little esoteric.

"Do Apples Fly?" strikes imagination, and magnetizes the thoughts of the reader, that is how I feel. I need time to get the eight translation of it.

This is a very impressive poem. "Do Apples Fly?" makes me think deeply.

Actually I have both seen and made some apples fly, and It takes neither insanity nor magic to do so. There's a story here somewhere, but it will keep. Great poem. Lonny

You do the cutest things when the gremlins have got you in their clutches. Of course, fruit flies, not in the past, either. Banana skins, too. In fact, when they get together ...

Dear Erin-I enjoy more and more of your poetry. from whence I once looked for meaning in "flying apples" remains only an intended jigsaw puzzle, a false start, a runned race in which i not as assumed a plausable contestant words that only partly match....a jigsaw puzzle "growed" into neither round, square, flat, flat or 3-D"pieces of a puzzle" now a "pie without a crust"(in on old poem of my own Keep the Bear from laughing". Witness to the truth is the only cure-myself some other scientist-and lots of other people and meanings-yet you need to know for your own suffering"s sake-some people touch their sores instead of just letting them heel
