Transparency
Ah, transparency, do you see
A realm of understanding not
Within the bounds of sight
But within the soul of harvest
She ellipse the tragedy between
The felt moment and the real
Down to earth signifier, which
Doesn’t escape her mind like
The ways of the known versus
The unknown but completes
The ways of her wayward soul
Going from one path to another
Reaching for an arc to fathom
Before her eyes betray her dire
Warmth losing the tenderness
Of her heart, which screams at
Those that don’t reach for
Immortality, between time and
Heartache she losses touch
Of the truth of the events shown
And love is lost forever between
The pants of the truth, and real
Words of wisdom that only tries
To bring lies of her world searching
For the helpless like herself
Losing touch of space, the area
Where she denies herself the ideas
Of her meandering ritual of faith
There her eyes see the reality
Of the situation, and transparency
Seems to open her eyes to truth
And that of juxtaposition enters
