Amethyst and Mystical Womb

Although, having split personality 
in his tiny palms, 

he gleams...
and perceives life 
without fear 

but with warmth 
of a mystical womb 

that lures him
to enter a menagerie
of words, 

entertaining 
his shadow, not drunken--
but a bit drenched,

to huddle not 
on a cold concrete like 
a sleeping failure
