“Brain 1” by Radu Suciu
words in verse on a page
amply tattoo the literate skin of the mind
two-dimensional representations of thoughts
given vascular voice
speaking meaning to membranes
that pulse with the purpose of poets
absorbed through the draw of a subdural thirst
to be sated by lyrical genius
(originally posted October 2013)
Just so brilliant, Paul. I’m in awe of your poetic prowess.

Seriously!!! Cormac McCarthy level brilliance in this one. There’s a passage from The Road—that gives me chills/awe like this piece.
Love it!!!
