Dressing the Light
by William Robbins
copyright 05-01-2002


Age Rating: 18 to 127

 
Playing checkers
with one’s thoughts,
redeem, redeem,
cry — scream with muted, starving stares
at the walls in people’s eyes.
They think they have tasted heaven
in their appetites,
growling at the bursts of longing
that dares to lick their dessert.
Somewhere in the pitch black
terror of nakedness,
tomorrow becomes a chalice
served by wings
instead of hands.
And dawn
is born in a wretched bath,
cleansing with a bluntness
of a piercing
kaleidoscope
quivering with veracity.

Life certainly is uneven and not always fair BUT ~~~~~ "And dawn is born in a wretched bath, cleansing with a bluntness of a piercing kaleidoscope quivering with veracity." How did you know where I was born and are you makiung comments about my critiques? As for the quivering with veracity ~ that's wholly true, my Border Collie did just that! LOL! Sorry about the silly joking, because you have written well! DAWN in UK (not in a bath!)

This is great, very well done.

Oh my this is very deep and done very well. Images of desperation and cheating one of its rights a game we are born into with fear and delights. You have done very well with this poem.
