I am a statue of mist
I am a statue of mist
original poetry
I.
I break the plaster of my own past.
I paint the canvas cast of the
Crumbling remnants, sketch
Someone else's present
With a clean touch.
Become a statue of forever;
I lick away my wounds and
Unbind my legs of stone.
Bathes in the black light
At the bottom of the sea.
Launching through the strata
To swim in the galaxy of milk.
II.
Wake up in a castle of bandages.
Travel through my mind's meadow.
I walk or fly, finding certain crevices
To plant the precious seeds of beauty
That I harvest from the sacred grove.
Luminescene in the sphere of stone.
I phase through the walls of suffering;
I escort the dead to their hostels.
Perishes in sapphire flames
On top of the whole world.
Exploding into the purple mist
That nurtures mortal souls.

Hi @tamaralovelace, thank you for reading and I'm really glad you enjoyed it :D
Milk cosmos, sarocofag life and gypsum statue of fog. The meaning floats in the ether of the free soul's poetry. Listening to the words of the unspoken depth of the past, the light of the dying air comes from the essence of a lifeless life that is transient. @d-pend

A wonderful assortment of images here, buddy. I don't know if I could put my finger on why exactly, but reading thru this I kept thinking of Walt Whitman (specifically Song of Myself). Really good one here!
Hmmm, interesting! Thanks for your support and comment @dbooster :)
It's been a long time since I've read any Walt Whitman... probably since I was in high school!
