Form

Form,
Idealized form,
whichever kind you are,
building, person, painting, landscape, poem;
touches archetypes in me
Archetypes,
thank God, are funny things.
They are not usual life.
Not mundane.
They bring--
life out of me;
joy out of me;
pleasure out to me.

I can’t help but smile 
and my belly warms up inside
and I live next to pleasure for a moment
or a while.
