Tricksters of a Memory

I love polygons even as they are irregular
Within the tangled space and time
Rich angles become decisive corners 
Tricksters of a memory

It was tender congruency at first sight
Delightful and captivating solid cubes
Even as they drooped into prisms 
As they vanished into hues of essence

They trembled at degrees of tender touch
Fear not trapeziums of death
Dread not time exhumed from a tomb
She falls in upright squarish 

Die, pentagon, rest hexagonal pretty rod
Wither on decagon fading acuteness
Oval memory is with cylindrical insight
Beauty weeps bulkiness of the volume
