NaPoWriMo #4 : Vision Thing

Vision Thing


Vision has a look here dance naked quality


While some vision has "you kids aren't going to want to see that" finger wag


Other vision says beyond THIS, there's a sweet valley we have not yet tasted


As another vision rocks in its arms dreams of freedom, rebirth and transcendence.


That vision thing tangles with this vision thing into a tumbleweed of vision rings to a roll across vast vision-less fields


and sings. Yes, she sings.


She does.


Many eyes tied to many hearts, that one love ( yes, yes - that one )


that tumbleweed of desperate dreams


sing that, vision thing


You're a bundle of better angels, a choir of thorns with wings.

  1. That last line is incredible. I can't stop reading it, and it actually does ring rather deep with me. There's a beauty and encouragement wrapped up in this poem. Really lovely.

    I'd say if you're looking to break out of the list format, try some other prompts. I can link you to a few blogs that post them if you're interested.

    1. Jessica McHugh (http://mcnito.blogspot.com/) has a very interesting thought process, haha. Her writing is all over the place crazy.

      For a more subdued reading experience, I'd recommend Lizzydragon (http://pieces-of-a-smashed-love.blogspot.com/). Her poetry is quite contemplative and her imagery is fantastic.

    WOW!
    I could hear you reading it, it feels like you are speaking directly to me.

    I'd love to hear you read this one, on video.
    This is addictive.
