The Web Poetry Corner - Doug Larson - water and bone
water and bone
by
Doug Larson
there are
primary colors
clear tints and tones
and blends that can’t be heard by ears
frequencies felt only
in the bones of our fears
dull aches padded
softened by age
and visions blinded white
by dissent
and rage
there are things that
just can’t be expressed with words
screamed in crystal clarity
by the eyes
that sail from our souls
in silent fidelity
or hasten from a touch
as revelation
clarity.
we write what we see
and hear
and feel
and it’s all so very real
yet transient and ephemeral
