Felino Soriano: Three Poems

Sought

Identified palm (lined fractions of whole emotion)

enwrapping tips of fully healed fingers

            touch of prior absence

condescends organic skeletal remaining focus

organizing reclaiming origins

                                                whose

desolate compartments fill with

isolated fondness.

Pages

        identify compliments with

recitation of body’s fragmented fictions.  Woven

reenactments

                        fractured thoughts of wandering realities

                                    cumbersome intuition the

reader designates fabricated hearsay. 

The Musician

Deliberate function, imagination

flowered compositions

rearranged regarding apathy’s

fundamental apprehension, aggregate.  Hands

isolate occupational gathering

strum of plucking guides

enabling vibratory faith

into a silent disappearance

walking into halls of a home’s

designated setting.
