Fig Fallacy

Folder: 
NO EYELIDS

 

Evry day there is far too much confusion

that towers thru time and stifles my mind,

skyscraper to me and my spiritual senses

going up in elevators of clouds, going up,

going up forever in star-streak lightyears.

We transcend the grave and freeze by way

of the floating octopus' electric tentacles.

As I sit and read what I have written here,

I have a meal of the same fear over again.

Therefore, changes create a small reprieve

to cultivate the scene according to needs,

my personal whims, as the mantra joins us

all in unison, The audience is a fig fallacy.

Your inimitable style, which

Your inimitable style, which never fails to remind me of the excellent symbolists, is triumphantly deployed, displayed, and demonstrated in this magificent poem.  If I were writing a commentary on your poetic art, I think I would select this poem as the primary example of how, and what, you write.  I am not just saying that:  it was the initial impression I had immediately after reading this poem.
