    Semi-Precious
    Don't sing yourself to sleep
    About without, might, how?
    Stand and be delivered unto
    Transparent treasure veil

    One stone left and silence
    Dark and blue, purple too
    Outlasts everlasting
    and the end until forever

    This moon shone, this star observed
    Passive, passing, or is it?
    Time worn water flowing
    lightning over midnight lands.

    like, "lost in the 50's again"? (still) the hover-jewell of our destiny we wrestle, mostly, with the remote obvious.

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
