RESURRECTION (3-27-14, 1:51 a.m.; Palm Springs, California)
so lucid
in each moment
so lucid in
the deep
so lucid in
the subtleties
of everything
you sense
and see
such exquisite
ecstasies
in every
little fleeting
evanescent thing
so wondrous
are the facets
cut in every
jewel like
line you write
worded languaged
so unique
more wondrous
yet the play
of light
reflected from
the tales
they speak
so raw and
rare so pure
and honest
so bold and
unafraid
to bleed
or free
through what
ascension
of perception
has such a
consistent
gift of write
come to be
in thee
i am baffled
and bedazzled
by nearly every
line i read
of pieces many
such as this
which cuts
from me this
free release
of jewel like
ecstasies heard
in every
scalpel cut
letter sliced
impressionistic
word
until the whole
of it is
done
from whence
the thrilling
clever bliss
of only sweet
mystery flows
forthright from
the silent page
into something
so eagle eyed
crisp and lush
so strangely
beautiful
intriguingly
deep
that it pulls
through the eyes
and senses
into the nerves
and brain
left defenseless
till it begs
from the heart
and gut
for its lushness
to be read
and heard
and felt
more slowly
more deeply
each time
around
again
and again
until its
ripe essence
is fully
absorbed
and my
hungry need
to understand
more
is
let go of
released
set free
until finally
absolved
at last

Much relief for me to finally have at least something (even 'ONE' thing; a new poem), 'pop-out', 'unforced', on it's own again, from something inspiring that triggered it's arrival so spontaneously(your poem)! So my "Thanks!" to you Atakti, for your poem having been the freeing catalyst in that too long stuck, alchemical equation's, frustrating, creative, conundrum!...
Now, whether it pulled the cork completely from the hole in that stubborn dam, which may open the way for a whole new flow, or only managed to pierce it's tough hide, just enough to allow a brief, tiny, new leak, remains yet to be seen?!!?... But nonetheless, I suppose it might also be true... that, 'sometimes it takes a tear to laugh, but it takes a train to cry!'...(a probable misquote of a lyric I used to like & know, from off an older Rolling Stones LP ('Sticky Fingers' perhaps?), but now here, many years later, I'm not sure at all, just how it goes?!!!) Nor do I know quite HOW that peculiar, cross associational reference, relates or has anything to do with your poem inspiring the rebirth of my own here, but it too popped-up, so I can only trust that on some obscure, deeper, intuitive level, it MUST!?! So, I will simply assume here, even though a bit cryptic, that it somehow "DOES!"...(?)
