I am a half-written sonnet

original creative writing
.
featuring the paintings
of Eduardo Rodriguez Calzado

Words are beacons and they are teachers;
With words I greet myself on the
Other side of this moment; through
Words I step into the invisible
Palaces bridged between minds, and
I sleep in the cradle of a
Crystalline string of letters
That glows the soft hue of milk,
Nurturing me through empty decades.

Words are ash and they are animals;
Words spread like a blinding seed
Broadcast from a hand of rainbow,
They nuzzle the sides of the living
With great affection. Through them
I am singing back through birth into
Another place, calling through the
Echo chambers of the unbegotten
To reach the sacred graveyard
Set aside for the glory of the
End of all the ages.

The end of all the ends begins
With a words that unravels the
Invitation spread on royal finery;
At that juncture the knowledge
Concerning the function of change
Will fundamentally shift and
Through a violent sublimation the
Poles change their attributes, the
Asymmetrical swap of forces boils
In a red sea of letters, the oblong
Teachings, green with evaporation
Waver gently in cords of mist to
Flow into the beginning of what comes
after the end of all the ends finishes.

Words sang and reported to the
Not-me that was deeper than me,
They played wistful and immaterial
Through my wet eyes of crystal, they
Snaked through my beehive obsidian chest
And stained my ebony skinless skin. Words
Traced my hot spring sorrow, they carved
My veins of lava spleen. They surfed my
Sea of craters and grafted a branch of
Figs onto my oak. From words I stole
Fire from a serpent's lips and by
The serpent's fang I was branded
With a book of lime. Into the
Pages of acid I was written
By the head of a weary
Expedition, words
That seared me &
Sanctioned my
Demise. I was
Half-written,
Half truth
And half
Lies.

The words of truth with your poetry circle. Close by the energy of the rose with us - ordinary people. Who understands you - now - in crazy poetry with creative imagination, my friend. Energy gives to blind people the power to look into the esoteric spirit of the soul as you write these gentle words. The perfection of genius - the perfect harmony of imagination, expression and poetry, inspired the masses to look deeply into your work.
This is wonderful poetry - my friend @d-pend

Beautiful poem of the power of words and the gift of expression it renders to those who receive. You are so bountiful in your inner energy and are gifted with the ability to express and share possibilities! I am lucky to read your wonderful work!

I may not be able to comment at frequent but I will try to read your work. I tire so easily so I guess I need a little more time to get back up to par. Your comments and beautiful poems and pictures brighten my day. Thank-you d-pend!
