Jolted by Twilight



A breath of light and suddenly I'm lost.  Catapulted by 
a mesmerizing scene of audacious beauty.
I'm a ringtone of arrival on a magic carpet ride, 
run me over with a feather, then let me repose   
Life on earth unhems, I let go of the mayhem inside  
sewn to the carpet of a foggy blue moon I finally meet
                             my muse *
face to face only we lay privy to this infinitesimal light
as it shines, shines, and shines;       
 
inside a celestial palindrome
a madam of leisure *
nothing can censure me here 
blast those blessed stars !
