poetry || Felino A. Soriano

 

from rhythm:s

in the ballet of rhythm

birth inward

prayer the

                        toe

                        steady

                        strong

hovers

                                    amid concrete’s corporeal fascination            watching then

twirl of the humanized smoke                        gaze                 upward reach of eyes’ etching angles

she an ultimatum of exhibition’s forceful disposition:

WATCH

wonder

                        we’ve incorporated bridge between us

and the you of interested facets of later’s naturalized applause

plural

in the crepuscule of rhythm

awaken home the

augmentation of trust explores

rhyme of the crisscrossing angles

            in hope of hoping

            arranged as the jazz ballad’s

friction empathizes within

contoured realizations of day’s

dilemma

containing tonal incentives to the eyes’

becoming acclimated watchers

in the grief of rhythm

envisage silent hands

confused in the annual analogy of celebratory giving—

morbid consultation

broken seesaw reciprocation of vowels’

expressive devotion to heal then

divulge
