Ideals of Abstraction

By James Marchiori



My ideal abstraction,

my bagpipe to play

symphonies,

in which I invent your

pleasure.

My idea of music

is your idea of dance.

My scarce feeling for

light

is your eagerness for

darkness.

Same concept on two facts.



 


James Marchiori is a Dublin based poet and writer. He wrote his first verses at nine years old and his last novel, ‘To My Beloved Heart’, a tribute to Edgar Allan Poe, was amongst the nominees for the Saturday Visiter Awards in Baltimore, USA. He’s currently working on a crime novel set in Dublin, Ireland, with fragments of gothic, occult and supernatural elements. Bohemia incarnate, a free soul devoted to Surrealism and Poetry. An independent and critical observer.


James can be found online on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest, or on his homepage.
