Shut Eyes Wide
6 March 2017
Look beyond
Your little blue pond
Particles
Of the Light
They remind you of the fight
Now relegated
Mind make green
The brown is over
Within spleen
Lies the sheen
Of what dominates unseen
We pick light so clean
Truth confide
The widow is bride
Shut Eyes Wide
Door divide
Monsters coming override
Rules reboot decide
Reading of the poem:
Masked ball – Jocelyn Pook
Bleeding Soles – Jocelyn Pook
Dionysus – Jocelyn Pook
Happily ever laughter

.
Mocking hill stood stark
Against pains of memory
That stretched envy green
.
Bluebirds flew silent
Into cages that shut light
Delicate bones snapped
.
Feather by feather
The peacock loses glory
As the swamp moves in
.
A stretch of time’s wings
Borrowed from ancient black caves
Where noises spun dark
.
Silver coins drop
Exchange is in losses’ weights
I will read your fate
.
Hop to the music
Twist of luck for you hunchback
Quasimodo heals
.
Hold hands with puppets
Heart reeling with the strings’ pull
Pearl by pearl stitch souls
.
Adorn fools’ beret
Step dancing into the jig
Smile is for wearing
.
Grimacing heart’s ache
Twitched and writhed in irony
Happily ever laughter
.
