1750 (inspired by j.s. bach)

…the romance of logic’s purist...
...and his delicate servants…
…who danced upon in time while other machines would rather utter woe…
…which blunt their own echo somewhat as to remain not so overtly attended to…
…but he by out-of-place precision quantum-metronome...
...and optimistic mathematic…
…has dazzled…
…to test time…
…and even the grandest master’s envy…
…do so to aching…
…and long to achieve such skill of constructing emotion by the patterns…
…of mere rising or falling tone…
…dance on, romance, still…
…the pawn of death on darker horses stole your abstract-song.s king…
…as the dust of us shall also rise…

Every single one of those disjointed dream-like sentences are like gems...each carrying so much weight. I love how you're able to do that with the most simple words, put them toegther to make something with a huge impact. And the last two lines are just brilliant.

its best to use simple words so everyone can understand i hate when i read a poem and the person used a thesaurus to write most of it try to sound smart or artistic but it just end up sounding like they used a thesaurus to write the thing.. simple and short and sweet.. im so glad you like this.. quite an old piece so you get to see this side of my writing

A dark and yet delicate sift through the subconscious mind, filled with some gorgeous images. I especially enjoyed "the pawn of death on darker horses." J. S. Bach should be proud that he was the muse who inspred this strange and lovely piece of verse.
