The River

Inspired by "Trinity River":



Like plasma, rolling over living stones
Which pour their core deep inside of the mind,
Your river runs through memories,
It floods their rooms
And feeds the best of their past,
Remorse and sorrows erasing...

Recycled by waterfalls of the heart
And molded with the tips of your fingers,
Your river rises like beams reflected in steel,
Casting its blinding lights upon our vision...

Strong like the Sun and cold like the dew,
It thrives so high,
It thrusts so deep,
Slicing the pain and removing the stain,
When the entangled arms of our brain
Indulge in vibrations...

Thirsty embracing the rain
And laying together on valleys of pleasure,
Liquifying the stones and petrifying the prayers,
Your river is the angel with arrows -
Fluid envoy
Merging through genius and sin,
The Worlds...

Inspired by my most beloved Havasi song,
this is a landscapist writing, like many of my poems.

Havasi is the river, erasing all the bad memories
with his music.

At the beginning, the river is actually the blood that flows
through our veins.

The "plasma" is the blood plasma and the "living stones"
are the red blood cells which feed our brain, by pouring
"their core deep inside of the mind".

The blood is recycled by "waterfalls" of the heart and so on...
"Recirculated" would've probably been the correct term,
but "recycled " sounds better and it also means that Havasi's
"river" succeeds to regenerate itself.

The "entangled arms of our brain" are the brain folds,
which let themselves go on Havasi's "vibrations".

At the end, Havasi is Cupidon.
Embracing the rain that comes from the sky
and laying with it in a valley, he's the "envoy"
merging the two apparently antagonist "Worlds"
- the Earth and the sky.
