I, a liar, love the loss
of going too far beyond the lode stone of wisdom,
while death's bitter flag-drop crimps to signal an effortless folly.
When from the first sight of light tumbles wild certainty in normal circuit;
When, by the lie of the land, pass haunts of knowledge reined loose;
When, apart from that laminar needle of hope, there is neither recovery nor memory,
I, a liar, hate.

Sharing for today's prompt for ekphrasis poetry. ♥️ @ayaskala #napowrimo
Oh, Georgia
(On seeing a small painting by Georgia O'Keeffe at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Manhattan)
Her brush strokes are so clear on closer inspection,
Populating the landscape so freshly they might still be drying.
This woman who I've seen only in photographs, long dead, unknown to me,
Painted these living, lively strokes.

And sometimes, the Moon,
From her perch beyond my strength,
Gazes back at me.

Ah, my foes! And oh, my friends!
When a woman is consistently spoken to softly & treated gently, she becomes a new woman. You're helping her heal her nervous system, you're helping her heal generational trauma, you're allowing her feminine energy to flourish, you're helping her to remember who she is.

My candle burns at both ends;
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends—
It gives a lovely light!
