~ The Girl At The End Of The World ~

~ The Girl At The End Of The World ~

At the edge of the world, sat a girl
With a wall of faces, in the wash, just off shore
With these mythological seas, teaching, teaching, teaching
Of naivete' unfurled, and a fine blue mist, across the world...

At the bottom of this, sublimely seamless blue mist
Lay hidden, that which, no man could resist
A powerful promise, of pleasure and treasures
A promise, of a perfect, pink blue kiss...

Shall I disguise myself, become one with this misting mist?
Thought the girl who's life force had taken this strange twist,
Perhaps there's a wince, that helps to disguise such instants
Thought the mythological kings and queens, governors and gods,
Perhaps there's a wheel, that simply spins, and spins, on and on...

Just then, at the edge of the world, a bright bubble burst
With insincere blocks of wisdom, and opulent, popping, thirsts
Causing energies promises, of pleasure's treasures
To bring young men screaming, into alternate worlds...

Where universal freedoms, throughout the stars for the cause
Brought the "vanquiship" of light speed, by just drawing out quarks
The "incommunicato", between silent or irrelevant friends
Allowing a cradled balance, of 'All Things', to come to an end...

At the edge of the world, sat a girl, wrapped in swirls
With all of her wisdom, and the pulse of this world
"She were lucky she was."
She wore a gentlemen's perfume, adorned by a single plume
"She were lucky she was."
For the plume it seemed, was her father's last wish
A wish, that she'd no longer glean, as a seamless blue mist...

So she quieted herself,  as glorious new energy, burst from her hips
Enfolding the world, with a love never known to exist
Then the world, scratching their heads, thought who is this blue girl
As young men lined up, and yearned, for a perfect, pink and blue kiss
It was this, that concluded, a most magnificent tale
Told by a girl, that sat quietly, at the end of the world...

Great use of words, nice subject and the way it's written just the cherry on top, because I also like some sort of storylike poems.

I have now read this more than a dozen times. The first five times I told myself I would wait until you said you have finished with it yet it would be a crime if I didn't ask you to leave it as it is. 
This piece makes my heart flutter, makes me want to drive to the beach and sit at "the edge of the world" and rethink everything I think. 

"At the bottom of this, sublimely seamless blue mist
Lay hidden, that which, no man could resist
A powerful promise, of pleasure and treasures
A promise, of a perfect, pink and blue kiss..."

I believe This part resonated with me the most. You have such a wonderful way with words. It feels like they all want a taste of her love Like she's a drug they can't resist and stupidly think they will be cured with a kiss. 

Truly loved this piece Tony, very well done.
Love&Hugs,
​​​​​​​K.
