In A Poet's Eye Poem by Laurence Overmire

In A Poet's Eye

Rating: 5.0


is the reflection
the image of a ghost
haunted by life
love-lorn romantic
the heart cut open
exposed
the flesh peeled away
in layers
words fall
drifting silently
the sad and bitter tears
of a lost embrace…

Bardo Burner, indeed! You got me there, Laurence! And your words fall drifting silently?
