Sinews Of Electric Words

Sinews Of Electric Words

She weaves references of angelic stones 
in tangled sinews of electric words 
beyond comprehension of mortal minds 
which sparkle with frozen sheen of brave rain 
so I may witness suffering of mankind 
in tales erased from archive of our hearts. 

Filled with shy conviction of earnest faith, 
she strides with rebellion of untamed song 
down pathway of unspeakable respect 
against foundational effort of hope 
to discipline her uncontrollable mind 
trapped in dire narrative of tragic love. 

Notching arrow of truth in bow of love, 
she fires intense trajectory of change 
across attentive hollow of lost time 
composed of history angels never share 
with borrowed words of honest travesty 
that threaten frail security of faith. 

Obsessive passion for relating truth, 
which should examine brutal hours of fear, 
writhes from locked archive of hungry hearts 
to crawl on wounded breast explicitly 
down centuries of manufactured lies, 
then lies in mystic ruins of half-burned books. 

Reductive code of illegible dreams 
still urges me to explore shadowed wood 
with twisted curiosity of tunes 
which unify disjointed claims of trees 
choosing to array both present and past 
through coexistence of ghosts in my brain. 

Inspired by stars she names with whispered voice, 
she chases echoes of misaligned thoughts, 
exposing lies of painters who despise 
false wholeness of virtual reality 
contrived to imitate national myths 
translating jokes from penitential cries. 

Hushed willows anchored in glow of weird eyes 
betray her safety with bold promises 
based on ruthless energy of contempt 
bound by urgent expectations we sell 
through coopted struggle of emptiness 
that leaves us stranded on cold roadless plain. 

Debased by facts of cruel modernity, 
our grandest university of truth 
decays from corporate comedy of greed 
though hearts beat rapidly with holy pride 
when anxious Orpheus pounds at the wall 
while chewing rotten alphabets of dreams.
