Sit!

Now I can hear your voice,
Breaching all shades
Piercing all noise.
You sit there still.
With your gathered will,
Your knowledge vast,
With a spell cast
A vision for me.

I see your eyes.
Benign and gentle,
Kindly enough,
You pour!
A drop of manna in thy grail.

But you speak heedless,
Of our present,
And all I wish,
Is to cease your pace.

You are the toughest hue to hold.
An antidote to me, as they told.
You are a road to me, I cannot take.
You are a poem, I cannot forsake.

So you sit for time,
Rhyme on rhyme,
Weaving narrations
For me, sublime!

  1. let the wait commence, rather than culminate ... after all, there's more pleasure in chasing your goal on horseback than getting the horse towards the end
