Contemporary Poets

Ah poets
Footing a satiated pen
Upon parchment
Visionary sanctuary of impassioned hearts

Avant-garde scripts of blackened verse
Replacing adoration
Lowly moderation, total syncopation
Of simple information

Rather a tree, but a Swan
Tumbling its wings lowly
Covering pubescent urchins
With willows respite

Rather a brook, but a traveler
Meandering through time
Etching spheres
With pumice pathways

Rather a sky, but a canvas
Vapor kaleidoscopes maquillage
Unmasking vulnerable eyes
With Hairs deplete

Rather a mortal, but a Picasso Mosaic
Angular expose of aggregate
Anatomy manifest
With extremities reclining

Rather a symphony, but assonance
Rhythmic junctures of audible friction
Tying Tongues
With indomitable vernacular

Rather a prophet, but a New Age
Horn, day star, yin and yang
Aligning anima
With contrary cadence
