    I travel confused in four directions.....

     In satirical satire my fire consumes me
    to incline the Sapphire jewel of my imagery
    as snow falls it mocks the rain's gravity
    held tight to the same circumstance's company...

    You may not know what I speak when I write
    for the rhyme ignites bright the coming of light
    the metaphor I gesture is not for the sight
    but the theory in relative dreams I highlight...

    I feel passion and lust in nature's succubus
    as it drains and dehydrates my being flushed
    the blood thus rushes my face forever touched
    by earth, wind, fire tamed water to hush...

    I laugh to the sky, not knowing why
    I cry tears of salted diamonds when I try
    for the unseen revelations I comprise
    are unique to my mind's agility in design...

    When I sleep in simile I am like the dream
    my power in scheme is a welcomed retreat
    to see beyond the sentient version of me
    into depths of cunning transcendent reprieve...

    I only break this poem in stanzas to see
    if one can gather varied parts of Kennedy
    no form in myself, just a scattered conquest
    I have lost all feeling in my thought, what's left?
    this informal prose
    this poem that shows
    I am lost in translation, which way do I go?
    Up seems to be down, watch me walk the road
    to nowhere a brick wall blocks my flow
    when I am water I freeze
    when I'm wind I leave
    when earth becomes me there is much to be seen
    Fire beckons the burning of all I achieve
    such random qualities and all are me...

    I must find the balance in the midst of my chi
    but I really can't have uniform company
    this is my curse for all eternity
    has been told in my dreams and nightmares received....

    Wow! The metaphorical content is sharp, almost "micro" ;) (To the naked eye) At face value, the flow of this piece is liquid-like, the rhyming is well appreciated and the scenes are vivid. You manage to reel in the reader and maintain a level of interest throughout the entire piece. Medicinal? Perhaps, indeed! A great piece that offers the night and day in one solid sphere.

    I don't even know what to say,,,, this is really to heart with me,,, every word, every flow,,, I'm contemplating asking yourself, DeepE, Lynx or Rygar for some assistance in shaping a couple of my old pieces of work into the stories I need them to be, I believe that they are in the four directions you speak... lol...

    Apologies for such a late response m&m, but I have been absent and/or neglectful since then. Thank you for stopping in and associating me with such genius

    There is enjoyment in broken rhythm. To be stranded leaves way for many possibitlities :) Solid rhyming rhythm man. The mockery of gravity, I watch as it takes flight through the scattered conquest. The poem reads like a maze. Sometimes I like to be without direction, letting me find the new perspective that the molded path wouldn't allow me access to. Balance to the unbalanced harmony. Love how this piece journey's my mind......

    such a welcoming comment eclipse, you decipher expressions with the best of them, and your perception is always exact to what I mean...thank you for reading..

    Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.
