even if

even if perception was to loosen exponentially
until we could feel realities blend
the colour of twilight be seen in its divinity
through all our senses to gently wend

even if strings that vibrate through forever
releasing acoustics of every single round
that exists within the chromatic scale of ever
should on our ears progressively sound

even if piquant flavours of eternity
did assault our appetites to taste
aromas roaming in blank perpetuity
over our palates softly baste

our understanding would still be a guess
for no finite mind can comprehend infinities
nothing manifest can see endlessness
or the faces of god in all their complexities
.

Favorite Poets: Favourite poets? So many, so varied. I like particular songs, not necessarily the singer... and the same goes for poetry. I can honestly say though, that Alfred Noyes' The Highwayman was what inspired my love of poetry - my mother began reading it to me when I was still a baby, and it became my favourite bedtime story

There is,

There is no answer to this, or is there. Are we just not complex enough to have an answer, we can't leave it to faith it's not our way. This is a terrific poem as well as a work out for the head. Love Roscoe...

Roscoe said most of the things about your piece where it is a mind searching piece.
This tripped me in a couple of places as its smooth read became a little bumpy, maybe because of the words that I had to pause on, one place where Round I thought should have been sound then the sound came in lol
But as Roscoe said it was a grand write,
Yours Ian.T

'... had to pause on, one place where Round I thought should have been sound then the sound came in '
that's a compliment in my mind, for i don't thinki rhyme should be predictable - i reckon it works best when it is unexpected...

thanks for the great comments
