Ars Poetica - by Lily

Shrill Krill & Shell

February 24th 2008 11:10
An arrangement of twilight
in a harvesters patch
skulking shadows
reach out to Dusk

when my time bud has closed
will the wind stir?

if I fall into the horizon alone
with shrill, krill and shell
will your sky hold
all my swelling waves?

spoon it in bit by bit
water and tonic
yes swell your hearts
for me to cross to
(this is where
I will desire to dwell)

i will tear the sky, open
and satisfy you with
flights of nature
and devotion bells
living, pulsing

draw closer with me
and position your reckless hat
for tonight I acquaint you
yes tonight, I coil and shriek
in tomorrow's bleed
in phantasms' emocean
strengthen



~Lily

Lily, this is my favourite poem of yours!

I LOVE this:

draw closer with me
and position your reckless hat
for tonight I acquaint you
yes tonight, I coil and shriek
in tomorrow's bleed
in phantasms' emocean
strengthen

Gives me shivers!

Michaelie

Lil, I love the lilting sound of the first verse

An arrangement of twilight
in a harvesters patch
skulking shadows
reach out to Dusk
