streets passageways gutters shutters roofs squares polished pipes reveal a masquerade of smells of rooms that dress & cling to memory silhouettes provide a screen for hips&thighs so neat&amusing to regard in afternoons of silence distress ripples twists to surprise in repose: together flowers an explanation of the serious & profound from gloom to bliss devout flesh approach with warmth.. begone the dim &indistinct... enfold aloud depart fatigue people indifferent to scarifice until tears & night reappears thus commisioned clearer meaning once forgotten.. unspoken a fragment of joy around wonder separates amazement through gratitude become appointed amongst the select grief dry as dust leaves the complacent living presses the tongue of the prim into a spell of ignorance.. an apt chance tolls & passes by the bitter deride the inborn listen as enlightenment lies unspoken the pleasant cornerstone happens by the good.. with an inheritance
