Eye Pod

EYE POD an apparition rises beckoning me draw closer inhale the substance of this moment deep rainbow swirls hypnotize my psyche erase the dimness of a nether world’s lingering lethargy stoic redolence awaits enticing wakefulness torturing time’s tardiness beguiling each breath “come hither” - “I am yours” Ah, to sip the nectar touch the edge of warmth caress the craven pleasure succumb to the darkness before dawn ©12/16/2017 submitted to - MORING RITUAL – Poetry Contest

An intriguing poem with manifold reverberations. Personally, I recall Edgar A. Poe's story The Sphynx," in which a physical event close to the eyes creates a vision of things mystical or transcendental.

Wow. This is beautifully sprinkled with alliteration and laced with sensuality. Very nice, John.
