Parament
Modern poetry modern verse contemporary poetry contemporary verse modern poem contemporary poem
The spirit world is not as spectral in
It colors, in its mauves and oranges, pinks
And greens as veils, so halo-like and thin
Spread wide, more spirit like than ghosts with winks
In blackness, blackness in a perfect sphere
And blackness in the universe around
It. Beauties in the waving rainbows sheer
Away to graciousness in curvings bound
For utter darkness and to deeps unknown,
Unknowable. Pale filaments like threads
Of strange divinities are stretched and blown
Towards angels who have never felt death’s dreads.
Infinities within infinities
Are hinted at in swerved affinities.
