I've been <br>disciplined by catastrophe long enough to know <br>how to build bridges of fire across the mindstream <br>without extinguishing my reflection like a torch <br>in my own awareness. Suspension bridges <br>woven of spinal cords like the suicide nets <br>around the Peace Tower. Dream catchers, yes, <br>but who can stop the nightmares from falling to their deaths? </div><div style="margin:10px 0">The scars grow old as the tongue leather of leeches.<br>Time for them to dropp off like deathmasks on a pilgrimage <br>that just couldn't keep up with the unholy pace of my blood. <br>Tired of waltzing with bear traps in a plastic marijuana patch. <br>Weary of arranging flowers so they're not embarassed by the stars <br>that are wearing the same thing this year, <br>as they always do in the fall, when it's not their wardrobe, <br>but our eyes that are renewed by their shining.<br>Not a crusade in advance of hope, not the retreat <br>of apostate despair, nor yet a sideways move <br>to get out of the way of anything I labour<br>under the delusion for convenience <br>I was meant to experience without being consulted. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">It isn't the stump that has to fear the lightning.<br>Asleep or awake, it's all the same vision to a sorcerer<br>casting spells on the moon like oxymoronic dream grammars<br>that don't come with parachutes or safety nets <br>to catch the flying fish when they swan dive back into the abyss. <br>What's a thought? What's an emotion? <br>Why do the butterflies sting worse than killer bees? <br>Why do the scalpels of thought only dance with amputees?</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=477000" data-title="Walking Straight Through The Cobwebs de Patrick White" data-description="Walking straight through the cobwebs of old emotions, trying to get these straitjackets off me, these brown starclusters that stick but never seem to shine.
