Titanic Chains Poem by Mark Heathcote

Titanic Chains



How do I couple these titanic chains?
Any longer in a disused railroad, yard.
How do I grasp a rainbow?
By all its foundation roots,
When even now lowly flowers refuse
To extend their tendril shoots.
Display their turquoise colours.
The colours that represent
The heart of the spoken word:
These flowers on a mountain slope
That once opened like spring water jets

Clear lines of communication between …us

How do I fix - what won't hold any glue.
How do I hover like a predator in the sky?
With a passion to love you as you
Would have me do
So our turquoise has turned
A deeper shade of blue and spiritually,
There's no more communication apart from
Two angry engines in a disused railroad, yard.
Wanting to climb, in a tug of war
The topmost summit turquoise stream.
