Spirant Truths

a grievous soul harrows contentional pathways
where truth chisels within mortuary stones

Spirant Truths

 


meretricious tinsel rewards itself

hailing its wounds as mighty swords

in coppers chrome and nickle plates

contriving feigned lover's affection

hollow soul cries out for more

deaf and blind are those who spy

spurious pirate walks his broken plank

a specious substitute offering torn veils

forking within apocryphal spurred tongues

unable to sustain chary smoke filled screens

time's sin allows the spade to pedanticly reveal

onerous plots cremated by her emery's pious dust

as rusty iron nails seal into pine coats box

buried deeper in graves by hallows insight

her zenith crowns within spirant truths...

"time's sin allows the spade..."...this line digs the whole of this poetry out for me...it's all I really need to focus on...burial of sin does not redeem nor nullify the event because carnage is here to stay, and how we choose to deal with it will reflect our mental health for the rest of the days of our lives...Spirant Truths is very valuable as a personal healing tool for me as of late...

Love,
Sage

Once again your beautiful words have me to pondering
You write so beautiful and unique
This verse is deep,not sure I understand
about breath?
I guess that's the reason i ratter be cremated
and not buried
Wishing you Peace Love and Light...Yolie

This is deep and intense and not sure I understand it all but the flashes of insight and images ignite thought processes in my mind as I read and reread...

A few nights...the same thoughts...the same feelings...who the heck was trying to switch off my lights?
