A Night In Detorit

It's three O' Clock
Outside Detroit.
The breeze alone,
Moves with sole alliance,
Throughout the forest; 
Beckoning me to silence:
Leaving me to watch
My Thoughts wander
Through The landscape of
Disregard.

A symphony within 
Its own schism.

To grasp
A cloud... is to
Grasp a thought.

Shall I tantalize
Quite like she? 
Livid moon, the coquet, 
Marauding beyond
Thin strips of veil
(Baiting hints of bedevil-try),
Only to reveal sudser...
My fingers shalln't ever 
Feel her quicksilver wan--
Hitherto now begging solace--
Left alone
With but this humble idiom:
   "So mote it be"
