Smoke words every day.

The home of poetry

[460] The Eternal Waiting

I walked while I waited ⁣
for words to stop failing ⁣
My state of mind was stateless⁣
Waking up in liminal spaces⁣
⁣
There seemed to be an answer⁣
that didn’t speak my language⁣
in a storm that uproots blue ⁣to
reflect fiery passion
⁣
Undone by shapeless sensations⁣
Vehemently without fervour ⁣
But my internal life is boundless ⁣and
it thinks of you whenever I’m waiting

Painting by Gilbert Williams, “Sacred Journey,” 1987
