threnody

Published by ArtingArena on 13/02/202313/02/2023

i scribble in my face, my father_ who found strands of

my hair in the teeth of my comb,

i remembered when he sewn in the heap in my yard, roses,

bougainvilleas, hibiscuses with their sprouts and petals of reds & pinks.

but that night, he breathed hope into the tomb in which he entombed his face,

his face, kissing the grains of sands & i wrote him a threnody_ a poem, a requiem

which he carries on the crucifix around his neck.

that night, i engraved my face in the mirror which hangs on his tomb,

i kissed the brittle that lurks there, i knelt & prayed for his portrait to fade

from the lines of my poem.

An impressive share! I have just forwarded this onto a friend who had been conducting a little research on this. And he actually bought me breakfast because I discovered it for him… lol. So allow me to reword this…. Thanks for the meal!! But yeah, thanx for spending time to talk about this matter here on your blog.

Good post. I learn something totally new and challenging on websites I stumbleupon every day. It’s always interesting to read through articles from other authors and practice a little something from their sites.

Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates. I’ve been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this. Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.
