Sunday Whirl 83 (other...not story verse)
silent, sorry, belong, beauty, faces, bust
wrong, find, life, pawn, pride, fire, unless

Formality
(pi ku, tau ku, renga, reverse tau ku, reverse pi ku)
stone bust there
pride?
silent beauty
faces belong in life
unless
carved in sorry likeness...
who was the one to
pawn fire from the gods - you?
we can’t all be wrong
wanting to be warm, and yet
we fawn over kings and queens
in the museum
we find our connections to
those marble faces...
the living soul trumps stoic form
unless
perhaps they were saintly
silent beauty
blind?
captivates

Yes indeed.
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me so much of the expression 'We are all equals but, some are more equal than others'
Really enjoyed the imagery in all of this.
This is fantastic, Jules. Faces belong in life, indeed. I love how it all leads to the ending.
ReplyDeleteReally like the thoughtful exceptions made at the end of each of these. There is wisdom to be found in looking at more than one side of anything,

What a creative way of using the wordle words! "The living soul trumps stoic form" is my favorite line!
ReplyDeleteThese are very nice, Jules. A lot of wisdom in them.

This is my favorite part:
ReplyDelete"wanting to be warm, and yet
we fawn over kings and queens"
I rather suspect that connections to marble faces happens ONLY in museums! :)
ReplyDeleteAnother Whirl with Simon
We were on the same track but you chose fame and I chose nonentity.
ReplyDeleteI like the feeling of "connections to those marble faces..."
ReplyDeleteJules, you are so right. We all want to see ourselves in those grand faces. And yet the people behind the facades want nothing more than for us never to aspire to their station! As for "marble faces," I'm thinking Queen Elizabeth at the opening of the Olympics... peace, Amy
