Array ( [sid] => 186745 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Younger Stars [time] => 2020-01-08 03:11:11 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I am my own shadow.


I only exist

within the lines

on this page;


my shapeless form,

cast in literary

fabrications

and amalgamated

realities.


A mad scientist

building quazi-poetic

beasts of

distorted dreams;

attainable only

in the keys

beneath my digits.


My keyboard

could speak of dreams

beyond the count

of the stars -


though, the stars

in my sky

are less

than you might find

in New York City -


dotting the expanse

ever so sparsely


as they are drowned

by the lights

of those more

brilliant than they.


To these dreams

I cling

as they lead me

into realms

only the brilliant

travel;


a world in which

I am but a vagabond

silently following

the road;


hoping only

for a weary passerby

with feet as tired

as my own


to sit for a spell

and share tales

of younger stars


in skies

beyond the reach

of arrogant

city lights.

The realms we travel
we are like comets
blowing up the night
with a new tale
a new insight,
beyond the reach.....

Nightwolf your poems are beautiful

I once staid in Japan, and while the people are polite,
for a Westerner it might seem empty
Unless one stays for awhile
And the world goes on

we are more than the merchandise
a whole lot

Younger Stars
Youth and the deliverable over
times

I love your writing sir!
Peace!

Peace!
