Poesia dimenticato

I caught you as you fell into the ocean. Limitless motion From the waves Buffeted our love Above the pit of despair, beyond all worry or care Aware of the fleeting transience of literary devices. Are those metaphors, which conjure our subconscious impulses, transcendence Or dross as stale As Coleridge's Albatross? They're cross with me for defending you from that egg who runs the country Speaking my mind When others were inclined to shut up. Or is this just the madness which drives my sadness away?
