LJIdol / LPF: Week 12: MacGuffin
Wednesday, 16 January 2019 12:27 pmI want to be a message in a bottle
Full of mystery
Sent out into the wilderness
The wild greens and blues
Riding the boundless current
For so long I forget what
it feels like to touch the earth
Until you would delight in finding me
Plucked from the gentle tide
An unexpected surprise
A welcome distraction
And a sense of connection
So fragile you would weep with joy
To read the salt stained words
Tucked inside clouded cerulean
Uncorked
Unraveled
Liberated
Purified
Given sanctuary
Taken to a place
where you feel happy
To be read
curled up in an armchair
Or at a breakfast table
between sips of coffee
Trying to find the meaning
The first and final macguffin
The pot of gold
at the end of the
Mobius-strip rainbow
To be spoken about with reverence
The line between philosophy and poetry
To be brought to life in your imagination
To be brought to life in your imagination
