unconfining memory by Matthew Sharp a callous lined picture drawn from endless births and deaths responsibility to a silence further than ears brings the thoughtless echo of appendage after appendage slapping, p o s i t ioning, deconditioning finding friends in the binoculars through the wrong end it will be better when we come back... or so we keep telling ourselves we die again and pull each other back out through the faces of individuality ill find you in the water the warm dirt in a fault line falling through the sky short lived with no memory weaving out of ourselves like vanes through the universe perpetuated by the uncertainty of words: my beautiful angel corpse patient enough to watch myself die but not patient enough to be serenaded sweet procrastination poisoning inevitability so many lost breaths in the illogical nature of time fulfilling desires of attraction in thoughts from eternity's timeless observation creating memories that last forever inside of a picture frame that seems to choke your love away now i know you where screaming in silence. 09/22/2007 Posted on 09/22/2007 Copyright © 2024 Matthew Sharp Member Comments on this Poem Posted by Kathleen Wilson on 09/22/07 at 03:09 PM You've really stepped out of "the picture frame" with this one--and into my favorites. Really well spoken, lyrical, imagery that connects almost in "silence" all the way through, some startling and some with a "sweet" "inevitbility". As always the common view is recognized as limited, and the possibility for more-- aknowledged, and edged forward. In the face of "the illogical nature of time" and "a silence further than ears" you put this poem into a place apart, watchwords over it all. Every time I read it I savor lines, wry, heightened in pure emotion, reaching, even funny, and intense.
