[hometext] => n/a always, abraham
[bodytext] => Aluminum skies shift treacherously; a small and shoddy star tumbles lifelessly; the horizon swallows the moon, and our faces bear the pain. Mesh wire windows clutter my reflection; a haggard king born a peasant hand and tears to mount the sun, a blue-eyed shadow skirting the mountains of his own soul; lost in the hollow beckoning of her voice sounding down the hall. Ignore the screams. I wait, stand lithely at the window, am consumed by fear, am bone dry waiting for the comforts of the rain. Her screams are clawing at my eyes, but I am strong; I am cement strong sipping up the sun; I am iron and steel, the first aluminum sky, sipping a cup of coffee to kill my sleep. “Soon now,” The Dr said, a bespectacled and mousy woman, shifting the sands of her hair with a trembling, cautious hand. “It’ll be soon now, there’s nothing we can do.” The window slipped down around my hands, the rain collapsed the coming day, and I saw the sun. I saw the sun, and the screaming finally stopped.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
