John Scott Traczyk Poems
The vanished travelers
are cultivating an undesigned virtue
they have followed overgrown carriageways
...
Again
with grainy rivers pooling rust
my legs dredge heavy on
through thickened mire
...
To leave completely and finally
without a tear
my eyes have now leathered
and will not look back
...
The wind is using the leaves to speak to me today
she is warning of the unborn dawn
I will use my bones for stairs
...
The Best Poem Of John Scott Traczyk
The Final Gate To Eden
The vanished travelers
are cultivating an undesigned virtue
they have followed overgrown carriageways
into the hills
begging each measure of beauty a sign
upholding their tarnished arms
in a sleepless duty
they implore the grace of a star cloaked emperor
lost deep in the sky
sweeping through conversations
of gold and of wheat
each flightless grasp
delivers the glimpse
of gossamer time and rivers unbending
a poverty of response from each form of the earth
and each sculpt of night
dilutes the pale with faces of angels
and dunes that bleed into days
frozen in struggle with ancient flocks
a march of bold capacity
stabs deep and bears down
to search the impossible note
un-played in their hearts
that completes the way
