Clear Poem by Howard Johnson

Clear

Rating: 3.3


It rained stars last night
Over a black umbrella
They rolled across darkness
Scatter like silver marbles
Bumping quietly against the blue moon
Mysterious coinciding their downward travel
In random circles
Solitary and circumstantial fervor
Touching my horizon
Then breaking apart.
With pittance of a mixture
Pixy dust and diamond sparkle
The lapse of consciousness creates a fugitive
Escaping the compunction of life....

Howard, 'The lapse of consciousness creates a fugitive Escaping the compunction of life' From the help 'with it' somebody has not escaped far while, but I will tell the truth, at you it has well turned out 'internal space' Sincerely, Tsira
