Poem

Instructions


In the clouds I saw her standing, and the harps of her sorrow.
The stars glistened, and I hoped, they'd be shining tomorrow.
She dances into light like the butterfly, the moth and the shadow.
Then I realized, her departure from the sky could be a gift thorough.

 

In a cloud i saw her standing.


And the cloud that took the form (when the rest of heaven was blue.


And a cloud rose like dread.


The cloud descended and the ray vanished.


The stoop of oaks lifts up the cloud.


None of the above



I will not see another sorrow.


And the harps of your sorrow.


The harps of david, which were a sorrow.


And you, who sat down to weep your sorrow.


Then he who had gathered up his sorrow.


None of the above



I knew then this was no place for happiness.


And in the fire of her love I saw myself, and the ash of my own.


I cried for her, and prayed for the pain.


The shards glistened, and I hoped, they'd be enough.


I cried for her, and I saw her crying in the rain.


None of the above



The butterfly is a member of the chicago.


The butterfly, the moth and the shadow.


And zap until the picture coincides with the sound the neighbours have installed in their studio.


Is it a portrait? — yes, i am posing for а photo.


And the butterfly garden of chicago.


None of the above



Death is a mighty river.


Death is a great leveler.


Death is a sham.


Death is a gift.


Death is a slumber.


None of the above



A cloud is a tyrant.


The cloud is a slumbering lion.


The cloud is a swarm of flies, chasing the sun.


The cloud is a dark sage.


The cloud is a slumbering october.


None of the above



Death comes like a gust of wind


Death comes like a thief in the night


Death is like a slumbering child


Death comes like a savage lioness


Death comes knocking like a thief in the night


None of the above



Our departure felt like a sigh of relief


The departure felt like a dream


Departure felt like a goodbye kiss


And we depart like a flock of pigeons,


And departure like a blizzard


None of the above
