Ambidextrous
Liquid silver running through my veins
A prism lies just beyond the guise
Deceiving our feeble mortal eyes
Few realize, few embrace
The unknown--the unexplained
Bronze skin gleaming in the sun
Glistening like frost on roof-tops
Red garnet covers the lea
Just before the freeze
Self-deluded
Wrongfully accused
Our fate concluded
So wrongfully abused
Gasping for breath
Lingering in the firmament
Lost among a sea of pavement
I tighten my fist
Preparing for a fight
Preparing for the haunting amber light
Just before the loss of sight.
