Divinity in a smile
These eyes, like stars alight
To stoke the fires of this passionate
Elation, embrace of thought
That tickles yet the nervous breath
Coiling through the nerves—
Sensory serendipity.
–
Watching this Mirage
Deception of romance
Serpentine coils of medusan gaze
Wrapping around this memory
Of a man, once knowing
These lines, unrestricted,
Entwining about his heart.
–
The portrait and the face
Smiling through the frown
Of this imaginary madness
We’ve come to call a life
Will this define
Or refine
Your perception of meaning?
–
What dreams we greet
To hide the nightmare
Of reality.
