Tortoise

One new piece from me and thanks to Tiger for keeping us going. God bless.


Tortoise

One last long

sweep, fluid as fine

writing. When she goes

she scoops then smoothes

past what myriad futures rest

in uncertain sand, the countless

clutch waiting on time, waiting on one

certain time, a singularity then

racing to the mystic blue green deep

home to legions still one always

in the eye of this ancient

mariner slowly keeping

the eternal.

I like the sound of this one. Really well done - i think the tempo is well-worked as well. My only complaint is this line: clutch waiting on time, waiting on one certain time. I think time is repeated too much here taking away from the poem and the tempo of the poem. Other than that a good read.
