â16 Monks in Procession-Bagan Myanmarâ â by Pier Poretti (Free verse) by Sunny
Revision #3: I would greatly appreciate any of your minute or longger
commentary you might care to give on this piece...it's coming from a
brilliant photophraph, found on the below listed link, & I want to
really represent this "beyong-me" brilliant anrtist the utltimate that I
can because this pictue is just so increbibly striking. I did go out on
the limb, using imagery, my own personal touches & even
personification to get a feel/ grasp of the theme I am trying very
hardly to supply to the reader....All the help I can get & will
make a note to comment on each on of your's upcoming as well :) Looking
forward to it (Dovina & Ranger!) Here goes,...
I advise looking up the photograph: http://www.picassomio.com/art/28160/

Black and white
shyly set behind Shakaâs devotions
in fuchsia robes,
inside smoldering smog,
mocking their light-plan.
Temples penetrate the background,
gauntly grey, in purpose
to exaggerate
the tree that other elements
bend for, fanned rivers
of twig and branch.
Aged temple, vain by inevitable showcase,
vain and perfectly centered.
Whatever the make,
the ground appears
as wet concrete or planar dirt
leveled and splayed
by rain. Monks
scourge the air of sly whispers,
as the light-lovers
purge through in the their cloaks
and unfolded fans
that align in mustard
for forecasted showers:
denying fog, lugging fog
from the only colors
that stand alone â
brave soldiers
in this mistâ¦
the stone that pierces
the fogâs indifference.
