stillness speaks
like a bird with a broken wing
the way of song, essential
the freedom to fall, forgotten
heaven is for real
we are but a coke machine glow
between darkness and light

Bjorn has asked us to dust off some books to create some “spine poetry”.
mishunderstood 
I like the coke machine glow title.
“stillness speaks like a bird with a broken wings”, the titles work well for you. That “coke machine glow” snagged me too.
Wonderful poem.
And the first two lines are heartfelt.
“stillness speaks
like a bird with a broken wing”
Each couplet is a gem of thought. (K)
Oh, you managed to work in our anthology … I like it. so well done.
Love your ending…
we are but a coke machine glow
between darkness and light
I love this so much: “the freedom to fall, forgotten”
Also this:
“heaven is for real
we are but a coke machine glow”
I love the selection specially the last one, between darkness and light. Apologies for the late reply.
Thank you,Grace. 🙂
Coke machine glow — it’s a powerful and very visually strong line. I also like the line about how Heaven is for real. Nice write?
Thanks….yes I think the book titles did most of the writing for me. A fun prompt.
