Little Miss Homo Sapien's Cave

Wordplay

of the palate’s pigment,
the shade of the flavor;
of the palette’s figment,
the mind of the painter.

of the bulb’s ligament,
that holds together light;
of the bone’s filament,
that wires the flux of life.

of the blackish vertex,
the peak of the sombre;
of the brackish vortex,
the eddy of the salt.

of the north pole’s glazier,
the soul through the ice;
of the window’s glacier,
the cold zone of the eyes.

of the proximity
of that word on my tongue;
of the proxility
that is still yet to come.

  3. “of the north pole’s glazier,
    the soul through the ice;
    of the window’s glacier,
    the cold zone of the eyes.”

    I like this…the poem is exceptional.
