The Triad

Should sin imagined need that we atone 
For angles lying equilaterally prone? 
Conjunctive on an even parity 
Of head and toed triangularity. 

Passion shaped by she and he and she, 
Yet friendship, understanding holds the key; 
Pyramidal the power of the prism, 
A dark side of the moon eroticism.

And though the devil days need exorcism, 
Night in liquid silk somnambulism 
Moulds the flesh and satiates the brain, 
Three sides to every story they remain.

Arise convention's bones and drab disdain 
At value judged contaminants again; 
The Triad burning love when night must fall, 
Embraces all for one and one for all.
