Poem: Grey Sky

 

Grey Sky

 

tufted and eroded,

no tells in the old face of this long neutral sleeper

waiting waiting waiting

for the prick of a dream to decide.

 

such lofty mist,

it couches passion or tripe,

jubilant rain

or the terse dissonance of long-lost windsong sobbed.

 

what is that solar signet

dim on an envelope of ancient grey and

what what what why why why?

maybe shy stars within?

a poem urgent to be read?

 

 who knows … these …

 

frozen billows of endless ivory 

meditate meditate meditate--

is that what they do?

wait for thought to erupt, pure of hover?

gods from a soft-knitted, grey-silked chrysalis?
