The Iceberg

The Iceberg
As if the dark salty sea controls
As his fluid skin push movement
As we bend unravel enveloping
As magnificence star-breath sings
As melting leads to drip evaporate
As mortal nothingness absolute
As like give me whispers against
As silken frostbitten fingers grab
As calling and response lapses
As under pulse depth of this one
As hard waves prevent drowning
As sure as spirit ripening collusion
As a damp dry passage navigation
As inevitable we do steer to some
As yet undetermined collide grind
As pressure churning milk does it
As slide destination calls wordless
As fatal frigid burning will rip coil
As destructive capable fire burns

    The bling is meant to be shared. Help yourself!

    "Nothing risqué, nothing gained. ~Alexander Woollcott " love this

    i'm especially fond of "if you don't ask then you don't get"
Thanks, Joe! Sorry for the delay. Just now I'm finally feeling better from being sick all week. Riffing off of "if you don't ask..." "if you don't buy the ticket, how will you win the lottery?"

I don't see you as hopeless. You mentioned on Ferocious that you 'got it' so I'd say you are 'getting there' in 'getting it.'

Yes, inevitable. I am a believer in fate and karma. But not in Judea-Christian God who sports sandals, a big beard, and a stern glance.

A few weeks, we shall see what we shall see.

    I love the repetition of a word in poetry . . . it sets up a rhythm (cadence) so beautifully yet, for lack of a better word, anchors it . . . . Love the poem -- and love the photo . . .
Hehe anchors. OK I had to chuckle.

I put a new musician on the front of my blog. Florence and The Machine. Have you heard the song (lyrics quoted here) "Heavy In Your Arms" --- I think you will really love it, dear NB - and she definitely uses cadence to the utmost in that one.

Thank you! Sorry for the delay in reply. I have less enthusiasm for sitting and writing when there is a heat wave - my apartment gets about 85 degrees - even if I run the AC. Now the weather has turned pleasant! YAY

First - you better watch it, mister, or I WILL steal your bloody lupins. And John Cleese's too.

Second - I expected more sentence beginning with 'as' or at least sentence fragments.

Third - if you include "Titanic" in a comment about a poem called The Iceberg I fear I may have to give you up to the "Ministry of Obvious." Ya know?

MT - oh and IF you mention Celine Dion I will throttle you. Somehow.
