The door’s open a crack
a scoop of light showswhere to hook the toes
on limits to be pushed back;
hinges open close
along circular tracks;
facepalm maniacs
stand in straightened rows;
the trees’ stripped rib-racks
pant against the windows;
golden faun shadows
stalk aphrodisiacs.
The season’s in death throes -
the knots of zodiacs
tighten up the slack
disguised as ribbon bows.
But then, the rest is black.
But then, no-one knows
what’s there in the hollows
behind twisted almanacs.....
Was that rap?
ReplyDeleteFun rhymes
BTW: I think it should be "limits" and not limit's
Your question reminds me of your post on poetry definitions...:) and yes, that is an error. Will correct forthwith. Thanks for pointing it out!
