The oracle first gave me this poem, a contemplation of life and love. The bottom seems to be cut off in the screen shot. I copied it first, just in case. Perhaps the oracle thought that was a better ending.
Sweet Water Song
Ask an ancient river
whither come love
between moss or spring bloom
a color bright
& moon over rock
it is here
I know
follow sweet water song
and gentle breezes
making poetry
to ask why
this life
here
Then this one came from the leftover words.
Look Out! They’re Here
though vivid
never watch
as cold brown blanket
rose above him
No
Life who were
Some say
Walk
Wander this world nightly
Both poems are for Elusive Trope’s Magnetic Poetry Saturday Challenge. I think they illustrate our dual natures. I watch Masterpiece Theatre and The Walking Dead.
Everyone is welcome to play along on Magnetic Poetry Saturday. See the links on Mr. Trope’s page on his blog, Specks and Fragments.
