Leon, amazing work!
My favorite poem of yours right now is "What if Tears Can Walk and Talk?" That one just hit a cord with me.
Poetry is very subjective and can mean many different things to each reader.
Perhaps, what inspired you when you penned the verse, is not how or what inspires me at the reading, however, what this poem speaks to me is this:
We all ARE tears walking and talking. We personify the feelings we carry with us everyday as we muddle through our lives...never speaking a word about "how" we feel...maybe sometimes crying inside at our plight, or the plight of others, so it's as if we are the very personification of "Tears Walking".
Y es! There IS a rhythm flowed through "tears" = be it tears of joy, or tears of pain...all the same rhythm we share collectively in this human experience and carry with us daily as we walk, and talk...and live.
That rhythm is real.
We may differ in perception here, but for those of us that believe we share a huge connection through energy, (or God, or Spirit, or Universe - whatever you want to call it) then the grand release is actually a good thing...
"W hat if you could see God? Would we shake to death? Then begin to shake!" Amazing. Simply amazing.
If...Life and Death are synonymous with the ever flowing, never ending of energy, then when one "releases" it's actually a "freeing" not a thing to be afraid of at all...just a part of the great circle of Life whether or not it is a real...or a symbolic release.
Your writings are quite profound. Thank you for sharing them with us. Literally, there could be dozens of different interpretations of your work. It's very enjoyable, thank you.
