Broken Bridge Of Anywhere
Broken Bridge Of Anywhere

She wants to deconstruct unbroken mind
to program spell linking cause to effect
that curls her heart with plumes of innocence,
so when she wears gold ring of loyalty
no fool would doubt her brave sincerity
she purchased at the secret magic shop.
Therefore she hears wild spirits of the world
mutter arcane spells of verity,
providing framework for her lost world view,
which still includes regret and guilt as signs
that she is making progress toward rebirth
by struggling to maintain integrity.
By stretching her shadowless soul at dawn
to enclose vibrant pulse of cherubim
as shelter that protects her fragile brain,
she channels shudder of the river flow
through angst-flushed veins of passionate concern
for health of strangers she will never meet.
Assertive focus of her time-blazed eyes
requires her body to float on gauze wings
through sudden nothingness of nameless self
that wakes as robot running over hills
till she stops by the jagged stone of fear
and asks the faceless angel why we die.
When pine trees of elegant pride transform
to telephone poles with electric wires,
she counts every snowflake that never falls
so she can welcome homeless travelers
she meets on broken bridge of anywhere
against cool judgement of palpable faith.
We fall outside our minds to comprehend
expansive boundlessness of nevertime,
so she wants to speak the unhearable
with courage to oppose the oligarch
whose shadow looms in storm cloud of despair
though she bears fragile lamp of liberty.
Excited by new opportunity
to travel in the waste land of our faith,
she shoots bright pistol of her aching heart
at mindless stars that scream infinitely
before she finds her way in car of hope
back to the garden of blind skeletons.
She knows we are not who we play in life,
so she strides gracefully along the bridge,
wearing slender black skirt and frilly blouse
to advertise them for sale at the store
hidden in top room of the stone church tower
where angels weep for every suffering soul.
