Bound In Heart

Pass a light
my pen's gone cold
and my imagination's
taken leave
with that tease
of a muse
and I'm left confused
alone and uninspired..

Purple hearse slowly
inches to pass
library made of
window mirror glass
the shatter
the wood smash
coffin scattered on
twinkling pavement ground

Someone sneezes
"Make a wish,"
the whisper comes
spirit air smile
the score is known

A single pallbearer
lifts and carries me
from the back of the hearse
carries me
places me

Bound in heart
my flesh
paper
words
my veins
flowing passion
a lifetime's story
no corpse
could ever tell

my girl
lays down a flower
with a glint
in her eye
just like mine

soul snap

I take
the dream flower
fuse it to pen
and spark with life
once more

"Soul snap" love that trancendence from confusion into enlightenment. This is so easy to relate to man.

"I take/the dream flower/fuse it to pen/and spark with life/once more" The Buddha's second sermon, a student gained enlightenment from seeing the Buddha hold up a flower. Excellent piece. Wonderful rhythm. Snaps.
