The Twilight Lyre

The sunset whispers get together in the bowl The electricity hands them over the momentum The oranges in the soul a bit out of control The golden darkness stirs the dormant venom My horizons crumble in the pink petals As you let all the birds fly into ... My balance the toxic touch unsettles In the inflamed heart beat just me and you See dear how the red corpuscles crowd In the crazy chocolate wafers in delight Our ionised charges unleash aloud The sparks as the prelude to the night Tonight we will set free all chains In compliance with the scarlet gravity Perfumed storm must precede the rains Following the deluge of the insanity Beat by beat the pulls defeat all the dams The water is in a purple rebellion The universe tonight into our hands The splattered sun calls for the stallion The black and orange mingling in the two sounds The million sparks bloom out from the two fires The dance of the fire with the two heats unwound The twilight music of the two tidal lyres ___________________________________________________ March 27, 2018 For Picture This - Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Joseph May Based on Image 3

Intricately woven, Probir, as is love. This line of imagery, "The million sparks bloom out from the two fires", is my favourite. :) Congrats! ~ Artsie
