Imagining Things

Michael Marchese

By Michael Brandon MarchesePublished 5 years ago 1 min read

In what dispelled reveries

Do we still dwell

Of what hells

Have we not yet escaped

To tales tell

Of the fell seeds awaiting

The turning and tossing

To forcefully waken

From paramours crossing

Diverging path hearts

And upon them embossing

The marks that remain

Ever fading away

To what we couldn’t say

As it resonates on

Across vast silences

Afraid

So I ask what

Forlorn warnings

Reject

Next attempts

To add more

To the discordant mess

And explore

Further out

Past the love

We’re without

At last casting

Out shadows

Of those that we lost

In doubt

That we could ever

Be floating about

Serendipity’s nebulous

Vacuous

Bliss abyss

And by some happenstance

Of most fortuitous

Feel like this

For someone else

Even more

Upon stars we could wish

surreal poetry
