A Girl Named "Oklahoma"

A Girl Named "Oklahoma"

Thursday, February 23, 2012

Familiar
Spinning
Silhouettes;

Hushed
Iambic
Memories;

Fragrantly combined

With I in
Between.

We were free falling motion;
I subdued
Stark apologies.


Words wreathed into
The picturesque
Motionless
Sky.

She framed the ache;
Saved her broken countenance;
And all her strength
For all her knees' knowing.

She drowned her spirits
In high waters;
Savoring him was worth the risk.


That is the trouble with impractical visionaries

Whose zealous hearts

Write no ballads
For tragedies.
