Omar Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Fullmoon o'er my room- Her soft light running o'er My window, Overfilling its sill. A Splash across its Pan, a threshold Of vaporishness As attar attached To the wafts of air, Into the black nostrils Of the drizzling cosmos, 'Tis blackness not the sun Singeing me with fondness. I condense and condense till I disperse........ ,spray..... through The infinite........ distance........ and ...........The soleless space........ .....................singular.................

Terry A Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Using the word ‘o’er’ twice, weakens the first two lines. Plus it’s not really ‘blackness’ when it’s a poem about the light of the moon; more about the lights that night has. Suggest ending the poem at “Singeing me with fondness”; as the following lines are too abstract to ground meaning in any but the new age ways so nebulous in the preceding decades. The poem is worth a rewrite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
