Dreams of RedDreams of Red Posts: 203
edited August 2005 in The Art Wall
the white walls rule
the in-formed skull
the erupting core
the pentagon at war

the diamond's glow
the ruby show
the emerald's bath
the golden path

the midnight song
the road is long
the burning-embers chance
the eternal dance

the kingship fight
the populous right
the maiden's night
the artist's plight
i'm a thief... and a liar...

see Ed's church?--he's breathing fire.....

    this poem is different. i think i would have made it "the maiden's knight", but then i'm a sucker for epic-tales.

    you working on some etudes there Dreams or what?

    hello?.. is there anybody out there?.. Dreams? eden? ah whatever i'm going to the diner for some breakfast--there's nothing like beating all the old people to the early-bird specials and then asking them what took you so long i've been waiting here for over an hour..

    peace.

    I thought that a flow of a sentence, a form were very beautiful.

    The impression of this poetry

    The heartless present conditions, The present conditions that contradicted it,
    The present in confusion...

    I thought that I wanted to change my consciousness.

    Such a things and the present conditions do not easily change....

    There is time thinking so...

    but.....

    From consciousness surely personal any kind of change.

    Thank you for an opportunity!!

    thanks again Mina.. change your consciousness? NO WAY! first of all these words are next to nothing, but your consciousness is way too beautiful regardless..

    you're too kind really, that's the only change you need. wait, no, ah you know what i mean.

    i apologize everyone for the language and the flippant stories and rhetorical nonsense.. what can i say.. sometimes i just get myself all worked-up over nothing, it's a vicious cycle really.

    anyways i'm seeking help as we speak, so please, don't ever worry about me.. i'll be worrying about you all the same..

    :)thanks.

    III

    Two five-year old boys before the poster of a nightclub,
    On which a buoyant girl adjusts her garter,
    Say something to each other or just stare
    At the saurian whiteness of the thigh

    Daimonian, remembering my childhood fears
    On this earth of the adults, I grasped who you are.

    In their night of distant shooting, fires on the horizon,
    Coarse laughter, grapplings, harsh breathing,
    The heart of a child is troubled. And you, a wanderer,
    Your pity is so strong that you avert your face.

    You are a friend of the innocent and the defenseless
    Who long for the Kingdom, as was that young rich man
    So pure that he blushed hearing a lewd word,
    And really suffered from it, and probably for that reason
    After his short life, they raised him on the altars.*




    *St. Stanislaus Kostka


    i am assuming the * marks dedication of this poem to that man.
    i'm a thief... and a liar...

    today i sat acros from a guy who went to school with jimi hendrix. kiss the sky doesn't mean anything. he wasn't allowed to kiss anyone. was he sterile from the war. can you imagine kissing the sky? kissing the sky means being scared.

    being scared? i've never had that interpretation, interesting though, thanks.

    to me i think of Love when i Look to the skies, and that kind of fits in with kissing, at least generally speaking, so i think that's how i'll continue to see It anyways.

    jimi hendrix is f"in sweet.
