Incandescent

anguished

The seams feel stretched,
like the repairs won’t hold.
Too many patches in too many places…
Vital places.
What do I do?
How can I re-enforce,
Without the necessary materials?
I can’t unravel again,
can’t and won’t live that way,
But already I’m turning counter-clockwise,
slow steady steps.
The beginning of a deadly dance.
Why love?
Why breathe…why dream…
Why write?
Because it is the kindled hope,
Of a world gone utterly mad.
An incandescent page,
That makes the imaginary real,
Even if it’s only for a moment.
These sparks are few and far between now.
Already I am drowning…
The repairs won’t hold.

I loved the title and the write. I really dug the questions that you asked in fourth stanza and the answers you give in the stanza after. I can relate to your write. Wonderful piece.
Peace, Laura |

an interesting poem. i particularly liked this bit:
Because it is the kindled hope,
Of a world gone utterly mad.
An incandescent page,
That makes the imaginary real,
Even if it’s only for a moment.
world class. |
