Nascosti Paroli

This is the place to which I go when words are few. This is the place where I speak to my heart. This is the place of hidden words.

Nascosti Paroli ― Men Loved Wholly Beyond Wisdom ~ Louise Bogan Men loved wholly beyond wisdom Have the staff without the banner, Like a fire in a dry thicket, Rising within women’s eyes Is the love men must return. Heart, so subtle now, and trembling, What a marvel... (more)

Nascosti Paroli ― Chinoiseries by Amy Lowell   Reflections When I looked into your eyes, I saw a garden With peonies, and tinkling pagodas, And round-arched bridges Over still lakes. A woman sat beside the water In a rain-blue, silken garment. She reached through the... (more)

Nascosti Paroli ― Bale-Fire by Robin Robertson Each watcher wears a lighted mask blazoned with the fire’s gust, like a birthmark cast from the kiln. Heat in waves, in flames splashing, and plumes, black plumes.   Sparks go up like spindrift, crackling into the cold... (more)

Nascosti Paroli ― ‘Static’ by Robin Robertson The storm shakes out its sheets against the darkening window: the glass flinches under thrown hail. Unhinged, the television slips its hold, streams into black and white then silence, as the lines go down. Her... (more)

Nascosti Paroli ― Adult ~ Linda Gregg I’ve come back to the country where I was happy changed. Passion puts no terrible strain on me now. I wonder what will take the place of desire. I could be the ghost of my own life returning to the places I lived best. Walking... (more)

Nascosti Paroli ― Eye Mask ~ Denise Levertov In this dark I rest, unready for the light which dawns day after day, eager to be shared. Black silk, shelter me. I need more of the night before I open eyes and heart to illumination. I must still grow in the dark like a... (more)
