a pull in the sky

 

 

a pull in the sky nudges you forward

a rising sound catches each ear,

drawing you closer

 

sight shifts something within,

sending you toward the door

as hallway lights flicker ahead

 

urging your steps outward

and the movement around you

gathers speed, carrying you with it

I enjoyed and much admire this poem. For me, it's graphical imagery can be applied - as metaphor - for many other situations. Brilliant. Blessings, Allen

Fantastic. I particularly love the stereo imagery, poetry often forgets we have two ears. Not just depth of the sky, but also of the sound it makes.

Rilkean. I also notice you added Icarus in the tags. I see the parallels. Good work.
