ohhhhhh brother of mine, you sure do have a way with words. very descriptive words at that.
'In the highter places flies a wingless bird.'
'In the deepest place swims a finless fish.'
When I read that, my mind actually saw it.... I started laughing. come on, picture a bird, with no wings, flying.... it's impossible.... and I just woke up so that's why I'm laughing. =) Mandy

Ooooh this was cool. It had cool like descriptions and imagery. I really liked the poem it was good. Awww no sunshine and kittens :( How sad. Oh well...that would actually be kind of creepy. Having kitties in your heart. They'd probably tear something and chew stuff up. Hey! That's a cool analogy lol. Anyway, good job I loved it!!

The rhetorical effect of the oxymora in your poetry scrapes my arms like a kitten claw, such a sweet thing but it sure hurts. Equalizer eh?!!? I like the idea behind this one, it's the perfect length and a nice change for you.

Equalizer....a superhero who makes oxymorons out of his super power. "I'll make that wingless bird fly! damit!"

ah, I take the wingless bird to mean that we don't need wings when we are that high, (high in spirit)
and the deepest place, a fish with no fins, same thing.
so the poem to me speaks that these things are too far to reach and get a hold of, and the system (body) designed to failure without the higher, and the horrific sounds of the lower.

haha ok well that's my interp, even though it may be so way off, we all see things different, and hey that's the way I like it lololol ^_^

yes and i have not seen you in uh... let's see about 30 years or so....ya, whas up with that ??? lolol

Lol, as my cousin likes to tell his friends "Look a dead bird flying," and half the time they actually look!

Yes brother you do have a way with words, and I'm not awake, I'm tired, and this has woken my up.

Hey Lionheart :) This is a really good poem. I like how the emphasis seems to change between the 1st and 2nd stanzas. It really lends itself well to the theme. On top of that, you have great word usage and placement. This is an absolutely wonderful poem! Regan

I loved the first line.
For me (and so this will be a very specific interpretation) it was about the backward evolution of all art, since that is something I think about often. The first stanza represents how art has become simple aesthetics with no meaning (synthetic was a great word to use there). The second stanza represents how art today still resides in higher and deeper spiritual places, yet are undeserving of them and cannot rise higher (or go deeper). The second half of the stanza represents in the mountains, the higher places as of now unattained, the winds the spirit of art. The last line of the stanza(my favorite of the whole poem) shows how this "art" has become to familiar to people. They love it when they shouldn't.
The last stanza represents how these things are destined to fail to do anything of real importance.
I loved this poem. A lot.
