The Subject Of The Poem Poem by Charl JF Cilliers

The Subject Of The Poem



The poem alone is the subject
of the poem as it grows
in the mind’s eye. The rain-reflected
sky that imagination shows
me like some half-remembered home
some half-forgotten moment far away: it is some
thing that in itself it was, is, yet is not:
always it grows only
into itself: a fragile design
into which a world’s multiplicity
of realities have momentarily managed to intertwine.
