Jay-
i did have that line up, but I wanted the title of my blog to be Sliding Thoughts…maybe when I get around to it, “on sapphire wings” will be a minor little note somewhere.

must agree with +Mojan & Lacey- this is a very beautiful poem-

actually i’m seeing it more as song lyrics, but that’s just me…

probably have U2 on the brain again (when do i not? haha) … ambiguity is one of their (Bono’s) lyrical strongpoints-

if one pulls it (ambiguity) off well, which i think you have, it makes for a very strong piece because people can get more than one thing from it-

“on sapphire wings”- that may be my favorite image from the poem- didn’t you have that line up here earlier?

yeh, i hope you do post more…

Lacey-
Thank you…I guess the more one writes, the more one learns. Actually, I wrote this at National Convention, so that whole atmosphere really contributed to it all. There are probably other inspirations too…
ah, ambiguity.

This would be a great spoken word piece. Very beautiful! Also, I can see your poetry becoming a little wiser…I don’t know how quite to explain it other than that. Keep it comin.

And I’m curious to know the inspiration for this….
