                               abrupt onset of love, life, verity
                                                                     
birth!

the rhythmic finality
in summing all unwritten souls
from a trillion wind tossed graves
of spore and torsi
nutriment

and chaos coupling cervidae
with dark pool orbs
who caught the dull glow
of fern dowels
as they cohere the spawn
of metamorphoses
manifold

to a deep pulp thrash
inside my own
live oak
totem
ax

a
primal haunting propulse
through
what former mind
had sought sub-
stantial
foot-
held

the
splintering sinew where it broke free
is my new law
of supernature
and i’m its new
deifier

alive!
rebirth is never complete. we die each day. but this time, i was watching.

This is rather alluring and mystic, I loved the way you stripped words down to their barest form, such as "supernature" or "cohere", I just thought that was an intriguing detail and it certainly achieved a singular effect.

This has such wonderful sparsity of imagery but is still altogether bursting with such lived-in intensity and dare I say mythology, the second and third stanza are my favorites, the arrangement is absolutely perfect and really struck a chord with me, I won't paraphrase or quote here, but needless to say this entire piece and especially that second/third segment elicited such immediate visuals of resilience and decay, abrupt termination and the feed of eons that pervades, I find this work quite mesmerizing and I will try to step up my game in light of this discovery.

Cheers! :salute:
