ringing three times
in dead of night
the bells
the bells
the bells__peal
moving between dark heavy hours
sunless under a new moon
silver black silver
no where to turn
caught in a labyrinth of time
all hang on the fringe
three times three times three
stars burn and die
they move,slow weary blind__
beginning-end
light-dark
dense-knot
wound-tight
faster faster
east-west-north-south
a clot,pure dark matter
ravenous,swallows whole
flesh blood bone mind
until__
time,endless time
silently falls
spinning
spinning
spinning
now, now__all is void

What a beautiful piece of poetry filled with wonderful imagery that is very stirring and frightening at the same time.
so powerful and I agree with The Write Girl, very very frightening...
Great imagery.
Love to be taken in and immersed in someone's writing, and in this case yours!

This poem reminded me of the film 'The Fountain'. I can see why it might seem frightening, but I just enjoyed the immensity of it.
Absolutely wonderful! Very dark and the imagery is phenomenal.
What imagery! So very good.
you steal the moment
