THE POOLING WATERS OF POETRY
Pooling waters cause
conflicts at the level
of a non-negotiable
hyperbolic egocentrism.
Suggestions for exchanging expressions
under the cover of immature inks.
Virtual frequencies of waves,
an enchanted tide of thoughts
that penetrates mental wires,
artificial smell, melancholic
psychically charged sentiments
and perceptions…
Those who know how to recognize
the words are not ashamed to
look them in the face,, since
they themselves neither swim in shallow mental
waters, nor do they converse in maddening
undercurrents and tender ups and downs
in a ship of poetry anchored in lands of
spiritual silence.
Thoughts tyrannize the night,
their sleeplessness becomes a moon sponge
fighting with star swords and shields
the heavenly pillows of unruly clouds.
Ponding but internally peaceful
poetic waters, phrases and exclamations being
refreshments flow seductively
on the lips of
paper pages thirsty for eternal coolness, having scrawled words
and crossed adverbs in entire
headings of the modern paltry,
tasteless oozing wooden discourse of knowledge.
Then as if from a machine hope comes the
liberating, heartfelt kiss of poetry to
redeem hesitations, notions and entertainment
the pages are reborn bright without routines
and gray houses or a gray neighborhood
the inner psychic sun bathes with its lyrical
rays, giving true meaning
to a weary traveler
the exuberant…of “becoming”…down!
PETROS KYRIAKOU VELOUDAS-
LIFE WITH IF… If and love your shame, you
will be able to
ride the horse you…gaze at!…
P K VELOUDAS.
