Felino Soriano Tribute

One poem by Karen Neuberg
within the motion of time
--in tribute to Felino A Soriano
It’s all true
though it appears
to proceed dislocated
from the linear.
Such brave marches across
marsh & magnet, weaving
migrating patterns
into murmurations
into the ear into measures
of what matters within matters
exterior, or interior,
or both
so that I want
to spread my hands across
the page of words as if touching
will allow me another way
to take them into me, into
that place in me where they will turn,
burn from themselves and float
beside my own, speaking
blazing encouraging fires
emanating from the continuous
now & ever.
Karen writes:
I'd been reacquainting myself with some of Felino's poetry and remembering
how much I like it. This is a poem I wrote in response to the power and
innovation of his poetry.
