The Web Poetry Corner - Daniel Bradbury - Mortal Sin Number Two
Mortal Sin Number Two
by
Daniel Bradbury
The washing sins of fruitful trust
Crashes over my eyelids
And cries me blind
My hands are in two positions
Clicking off time
Like time trial and errors of seconds
dropping cruelly on faceless brocades
And broad, proud shoulders
I cannot begin to express
The regret I have for choices I've met
And overcome with indecision and guilt
Because guilt is the mortar
With which the house of lonliness is built
And the explosive that will demolish it
Only to be rebuilt in Heaven sent, blind reknown
Bordering in pre-cognizant recognition of fate returning
To deal new cards to shakey hands
Fingers delirious and drunk with remorse
Forgetting that fingers tickle musical notes
And explore the cavernous nothing of skin and gripping flesh
Dripping fresh liquid excitement
But it's lost enticement to trembling fingers
Of wanderers and seekers
Of runners and holy thinkers
Now, I sit soothed and still
In the new mortal sin of steady fingers
Excuse my side stepping language and love of metaphor
Perhaps straight talk could perform better for
your ears, so as you need not think
Or seek, Holy Drinker
I stew in the mortal sin of trust of time
NEXT?
Why don't you look at
Never did i knew..
