I lay up in still sound
Depicting rigor mortis - down
The rhythm begins as contrabassoon
Ensembles in the orchestral form
Of your booming thighs
The clasps of tarnished earrings
Made vintage applause
Batting of false eyelashes
Mimic God blowing purity in a glass jar
Let it sink in...
Like an elephant in the room
These tusks break urns
And 1940's vases
(Impale the noise)
Still sound of human isolation
No deprivation
Just personal meditation
Insatiable hunger for more
Nightly Ramadan season
I entered the realm of you
As starvation weaves harp strings
Through and through

thanks my friend you always hit a new high note
Your words belie your age, Anthony.
I think you're an ancient soul.
Another nice piece!
Unique poem and unlike anything I have recently read, does invoke imagery of a hunter.
ok - so this is what music can do and.... wow - excellent anthony
I really like, "Batting of false eyelashes ." It says so much.
her ear rings are applauding you...nice...haha...you do have your own style anthony and i love it...
Anthony...
This was Nothing short of Brilliant!!
Great One-Shot!
You always take us to places we haven't been, show us images new, unique; and build within your own voice its own strange extraterrestrial music.
Always well done, my friend.
hot
My first visit, Anthony, and I was glad I clicked the link. Salus was the Roman goddess of well-being and prosperity. May your talent continue to prosper under Salus' beneficence. Very cool piece.
A truly unique approach... love the ancestral feel to this.
Lots of layers Anthony and every single one of them was fantastic to dive through! ~ Rose
