There’s two-faced Janus,
see, his forward-looking face
peers blindly into mid-winter gloom.
Please! Don’t look back,
we can’t get trapped in
his tangles of hindsight.
No blade exists that’s sharp
enough to hack a pathway through.

It’s the blind future we need
to converse with. Listen to
its riddling prophecies. My hand
rests on your cheek. Though
I can scarcely reassure you,
I still have love to spare.
Let me squander all of it on you.

Following up on ElectroBabe's suggestion of writing a poem for each month of the year.

I'll see how it goes.

This is my first post for a Year in the Making. See ElectroBabe's journal :[link]

I wouldn't feel right leaving you with a lacklustre comment, but it seems there's little more I can say than this is just absolutely wonderful.

I like this, It's definately something different and I like new inventive stuff. It's really like to the point but somehow unbelievably subtle at the same time. looking forward to challenging you in this poetry contest by the way... I'm also particapating.

Thanks for your comment.

I'm going to catch up with your gallery. There's always room in the universe for twelve more poems!
