Elliott Rosenberg Poems

A spiritual entrainment levees,
spawning entropic cascades in its wake,
a logarithmic landscape ossifies,
effulgent among its tutelary scarps.
...

The Mirror
- - - - - -
I smiled in the mirror this morning,
She gestured back with grace,
...

Song of Silence
- - - - - - - - - - -
Today I felt alone,
With so many friends to sing along.
...

A steadfast smile courts incoming waves,
raucously lapping in song.
Undulant dominion yields prayers,
of sailors yearning to come home.
...

I just drank some amber spirits,
that burn with fossil nostalgia,
encumber with humdrum to long a child,
purged from a fertile womb.
...

Ohmmmmmmmmmmm
Ohmmmmmmmmmmm
Ohmmmmmmmmmmm

American Woman

Standing before your deliberating presence,
...

What started with a smile ended with a shovel,
so I thought.
Fifty years later behind the church,
Where the hurly-burly began.
...

If the moon had lips,
that swelled with words,
bulging from its fissures.
Poignant wisdom I am sure,
...

I see the truth behind the light,
That never fades against its darkness,
Colors immense with disbelief,
Draw lines that give forth vision.
