A bitter wine

My soul is cloven
A cluster of grapes before the dawn
A bitter wine spoiled by the sun
All of my love is spilt out
So that I am rent
Unfit
My heart has lost its strength
The moonlight in a storm
Starlight in the water

Wow! "Starlight in the water..." What a metaphor! I can see the ripples disembodying the light of a star...it comes together, it splits apart...substanceless...a magnificent ball of fission, or is it fussion...doesn't matter; a mighty orb of fire rendered substanceless by its arch enemy...water...
When this story plays out in the heart, it is a bitter wine.
Wonderful!
I always hated it when I painted or wrote something that represented pain in my life and somebody said...that's beautiful...that's wonderful...hello? my pain is beautiful? My ache is wonderful?
Since then, forty-some-odd years later, I have come to appreciate: When given lemons, make lemonade; when given s***, make fertilizer; just make something useful... You have made something useful to me and that is both beautiful and wonderful.
Thanks...
