PS, the names in here are land marks at Luray Caverns
Caverns of Introspection and Solitude
The elusive muse, God--
intrinsic as the calcium crooks of Luray.
He slumbers beneath a quilt of millions,
and my incredulity waxes like a titian moon.
Stone, stone, is my mind--
Housed in a subterranean sepulcher,
she breeds my coma in Saracen’s tent,
and seeps seclusion, the sweetest water
that erodes my senses in tandem.
The stalactites of thought testify:
“this is the double-edged sword.”
Nestled in Pluto’s chasm, I wear the veil of Titania:
My face pure calcite, a myriad of lambrequins,
I remain:
preserved within the stalactite lockets,
though the limestone fetters encase more than they release:
thoughts remain flies in amber.
O old cave whose Dream Lake reflects its
own splendor yet serrated corrugations,
Your poisoned chalice seduces me still.Do you like this poem? Please comment!!?
