each bedouin moment

Post by wylde » February 28th, 2020, 9:24 am

.

smudgy doves flock like 
birds on the wire
leonard cohens voice
a host for the choir

each cord that rips a rent
through the vent
holds loves broken spine
with filled hollow intent

each bedouin moment
like camels calves cloves
dipped in the foils
of lance a lot toils

each cobbled word
a paved way of view
mindlessly mucking
those kneeled in the pew

.
.homesick. but homeless.

very skilled offering...has it all, wordplay, a message, unforced rhymes......rhyming is particularly tricky... i find many poets using words that are completely incongruous as long as they match the pitch....this also has great rhythm .....Flowwwwww

if i could speak arabic, i'd read it to the bedouin herding their sheep throughout our zone. I'm sure they'd give it a thumbs up and offer you some fresh coffee.
