Tempering Time

Understand
all is not lost
collected free treasures
from the sea
shelved forever

like a great mind
a victim to amnesia
will forget love

the breach reservoir
still unable to flood eyes
parched crux

hooded extortionist
no soul I possess
not even my own
awaken every now then
to instigate chance

determine to retire
a cavern gloom
promise to let noon
enter a new strange
under number eleven
impatience to a millenium

all bloodless graves

lepa,

Loved the first verse, it made me smile and reminisce...the rest of your poem...well

 I had to re-read, then read again slowly and ponder for a bit; then reread it all again.  You have a singular talent in your writing that gives me great pleasure in both the reading and the pondering. Thank you for sharing.
