To ride the silence of your thoughts in my ship of purple,
I spin the earth, motivate the winds, inflate the sails,
entice the oceans to make currents fast and wide
because we alone in silent dreams do abide…
To climb upon your purple thoughts of thunder and creation,
I flatten truth, unwind the clocks, connect the lights that brighten your dark street,
and empty out the bar so we alone within can drink…

This is a beautifully vivid and imaginative post.. The imagery of “purple thoughts” and navigating inner landscapes feels both dreamlike and powerful. I love how the language evokes motion, emotion, and intimacy—painting a world that is at once personal and expansive. Truly evocative and poetic.

Your text has a powerful, almost hypnotic pull. This “ship of purple” carries one through landscapes of thought that are at once vast and intimate. I especially love how you work with grand images – winds, seas, time, light – and yet tie them so closely to an inner movement, as if all the cosmic forces exist solely to create a quiet moment between two people.
The interplay of power and tenderness, of shaping and yielding – to spin the earth and then to empty out the bar – is very delicate. It feels as if you briefly rearrange the world just to make room for silence and closeness.
A text that does not explain but invites one to drift along. Thank you for sharing this dense, poetic journey of thought.
