No, this poem isn't political at all.
To: Sabertooth
Primeval starlight's cast into the dell, England?
To: Sabertooth
Very cool and mystical. Bravo.
To: Aquamarine
Nothing here symbolizes any country.
Carp swim upriver to spawn... In Asian folklore, if a carp leaps the falls, the "Dragon's Gate," it will be transformed into a dragon. But the poem itself is not about Asia.

Sorry. I was trying to find a center through geography. I was lost. :)
You write way over my head. :)
To: Sabertooth
This poem casts a spell.
Are you a witch?
To: Sabertooth
Just soo sweet. Lost on words.
To: Sabertooth
WOW, Big Cat....you are a poet & I didn't know it.....

Your poem seems effortless, and I get a visual image of romantic with a balanced mix of existential and sensorial elements. Ouroboros Falls, has a dynamic expression and an exalted mood. I love it.
Like children of the reeds before the flight,
Past yesterday we'll scale through croaking calls.
Our sunset hour borrows dark or light,
The precipice that parallax enthralls.
The waters' broken roar portends our plight…
Does folly swoon? We follow up the falls.

A shade of Samuel Taylor Coleridge.

Your poem seems effortless,
Thanks, Victoria... that's one of the best compliments one can hear about their poem.

When I lived in Laguna Beach, I often walked to the cove at dawn to enjoy the quiet beach, and I would climb into hollows of the cliff to sit unseen, just being part of the scene. Your poem isn't about the ocean but it surely took me back to those magic times. Loved it; thanks!

I always read your poems with great anticipation for the final line.
Sometimes, that's how I feel when writing them!
Thanks, cote.
