I lose myself ...among wildflowers.. I mind-cut through the rust of mundane thoughts... resuscitating words and laying them out in the radiance of the sun. the sun seeps gold through my hair....awakening slumberous reflections.. words shape themselves...cutting through the miasma.. my gut goes candid..I retreat into where I bleed alone.. holding on tightly to the unwavering companionship of my fervor.. an organic wind carries syllables to me.. I play my pen a quill haloed by mentors of destiny..destiny slams its door..like a zealot with the devil in his eyes. words course through the virgin of my sternere.. I have come home... #haibun
“words shape themselves…cutting through the miasma.. ” Great!

I have to say the second last line stumped me completely. First I read it as sterner. And I couldn’t understand what the line expressed..
Than I read correctly sternere, and I thought OK! But than I realised I don’t know what it implies. It got me more confused.. I know the only word close to it is sterno. But that didn’t make any sense. So finally I thought I should do what I should have done in the first place, Ask you..

Well I google it. And I got more confused. Apparently my initial thought of it as a relative of Sterno was correct. But that doesn’t make any sense.. The two meanings are like heaven and earth now. So treat me like a dumb person and please explain.. Sorry.. Once again..

No you got me wrong. I understood the meaning. I apologise if I didn’t make that clear.
I will never accuse your post of being vague.
It was the word choice that ticked me off. I know its late but you can see in my earlier post I said the two meanings will be like heaven and earth. So I got the meaning from the first time I read it.
Again sorry if I mislead you into believing that I thought your line was vague..

Gradually exploding words
Falling forming verse

Here first read
The wonder of words
Deftly by your quill
Transcribed, equalling
The sun, radiating
Brightness, breathing
Adding life
To barren paper
One can sense
Its rapture, now employed
Write on dear Yasmin
Write on!

I tried here in the library to look up “sternere” and merely moved close, mayhap. My OED (American) might offer insight. You? Best ask Yasmin. Yassy? Hey! You guys, just read and enjoy, the quibble can wait.

The big dictionary here at the library unavails. “Sternere” even in context leaves quandaried me. Mayhap my OED (American) may help. Now, Bruce has admitted to coignage in the past when I queried: is that the case? In any event, even that minor signpost – sighpost, more like it – leaves me breathless in the honest, fierce and burning, and lyricism equally fierce. You may lose yourself, Yassy, and we shall pick up glad pieces and parcels and be richer for them.
