If you were even as near <br>as the stars commingled in my breath, <br>I'd thaw my secret zodiac of crystal skulls<br>and let my mindstream run wild at your feet<br>like a flashflood waking the dry creekbed up <br>from its long dream of making the desert bloom<br>with real flowers in a mirage of metaphors. <br>I would ignite the pilot lights of a thousand stars <br>to blaze in an honour guard of mythic starmaps<br>waiting for you to bless their colours, <br>because wonder's never been known to start a war<br>with a world it's amazed by in every mesmerizing detail<br>without annihilating itself first, bursting <br>its own bubble in an efflorescent multiverse. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">I'm a surrealistic mystic to give it a funny name, <br>and you've seen my hidden housewells, sacred pools<br>receiving the moonlight on the water like the blades <br>of ceremonial swords that tasted my blood first<br>like a rose bleeds on its own thorns, now let me <br>show you my watersheds, the fathomless voids <br>of dark abundance and bright vacancy <br>where my eyes swim like the Circlet Of The Western Fish <br>that never swim out of themselves<br>or the oceanic awareness they're luminously <br>immersed in up to their gills in the clear light <br>of the emptiness shining back at them like a distant mind. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Under the icy eyelids of methane seas on shepherd moons <br>I can feel life stirring like the muse of itself <br>and though it's too early in evolution to see yet <br>I've jumped ahead of myself like the light of the Pleiades <br>and gathered up a herd of wild telescopes <br>grazing on the stars like big-eyed, thin-legged antelopes<br>waiting for you to make an appearance on opening night<br>and watch how they'd dance and leap for you <br>like grasshoppers in the Bolshoi Ballet<br>who didn't give a damn that autumn was on its way <br>to throw cold water on the fire because in this universe <br>imagination is the physics of the place, and the ants <br>might busy themselves gathering butterfly wings <br>like the covers of slender chapbooks of poetry, <br>but I'm drunk on these lyrical elixirs of the mind<br>that I take as a sign that you are near in the night <br>and who has to worry about snow, <br>when they can live in your light on an occult planet<br>where myriad seasons can pass in a moment of spontaneity<br>and the fruits of life invariably fall toward the sky? </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Are we both not rooted in the ancient fires overhead? <br>Nervous systems of black matter, scaffolding the mind <br>climbs up to paint the origin of worlds before their grand openings, <br>dark palettes of our third eye, skeletons of pictographic bones <br>beneath these scriptures of flesh we can read with our fingertips<br>like holy books and X rays written in the boustrophic signs <br>of the last time we ploughed the dark side of the moon together<br>and filled the siloes of the stars with galaxies <br>that spun like Tibetan prayerwheels, or Moroccan Sufis<br>or dust devils at the heels of winged messengers <br>conducting us like the flightfeathers of the dark arcana <br>we can read in each others eyes like loveletters <br>written in the cursive dream grammar the heart sings to itself in<br>when it's a lonely nightbird, and you're there like the stars.</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Patrick+White">Patrick White</a><div class=q> <img src="https://www.citatepedia.ro/g/32share.png" style="float:left" alt="Share"> <script type="text/javascript" src="//s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=citatepedia" async="async"></script><div style="display:inline-block" class="addthis_sharing_toolbox" data-url="http://en.citatepedia.ro/comments.php?id=476669" data-title="I Would Speak To You In My Night Voice de Patrick White" data-description="I would speak to you in my night voice if you were still here.
