Reply #96: This one makes me think of "A Primitive Like An Orb"

[McCamy Taylor]

No way I'm gonna type this whole poem, even though it is one of my favorites. Here are a couple of excerpts.

"One poem proves another and the whole,

For the clairvoyant men that need no proof:

The lover, the believer and the poet.

Their words are chosen out of their desire"


"That's it! The lover wrires, the believer hears,

The poet mumbles, the painter sees,

Each one, his fated eccentricity,

As a part, but part, but tenacipous particle,

Of the skeleton of the ether, the total

Of letters, prophecies, perceptions, clods

Of colors, the giant of nothingness, each one

And the giant ever changing, living in change."


My, I feel much better now! :party:

PLease excuse me while I go visit Doohickie's "I Believe" Thread.
