POEM: ISLAND CONSERVATION
She woke up and
Most of her body
Was water
As the day waved
She was a sea
Discovering thought
Islands for this community
The share of her shores
Is soft on bare feet
Infinite broken glass
Made the sand complete
Even at night
When the biome hides
The essence outline
Is left behind
Even when
She closes her eyes
Her memories
Are left behind
Bravery
Dance before me
When they’ve pressed my shoulders
Into the soil beneath
Shine above me
When they’ve sharpened words
To pass through their teeth
Warm my insides
When they’ve summoned
The wintertide
Cover and clothe me
So my sprit is preserved
And my creativity is spared
From frost burn

can I know the meaning of this wonderful poem?
because at the end of poem my thinks the goal at the death.
thanks @rubenalexander
Imho, the goal of writing poetry is to be empty. So that no thing that has happened in the past distracts from the present or the future.
In these poems, I decided to choose the image first then let the poetry flow from what I saw. I have taken the opposite approach for all of my other peoms. The goal I have stated still was achieved: ideas and emotions (some I hadn’t realized were present) still rose to the surface and were released.
The first Island poem is weird one because I am describe the inner ecosystem of the girl and she is inside of herself according to the poetry and image. I don’t understand what went on there, but it is still interesting to note.
I agree, the poetry of freeing the mind from the clutter, it's art!
and you do it!!
the art will be beautiful when emptying the mind, living as well as the deep feeling.
thanks @rubenalexander

A beautiful poem @rubenalexander, like the beauty of a beach photo you share, and has a thousand meanings behind that beauty. Poetry and beaches are not much different, because the beach has a beautiful view while poetry has a very beautiful story. I really like your work on poetry.
