intrusive elements enwrap me
Nauseating wholesomeness
will you retrench my dreary bicoloured contortion ?

(Weekly Magnetic Poetry Challenge • July 6–12, 2026)
You scorched my heart.
In small corners laughter lives
light phrases that dance through
dark
places
illuminated
candles
oh how
you shake
foundations,
feebly protected
Your voice dances through
my dazed thoughts
hazed vision, with your eyes:
glimmers
mischievous
marbles
bicoloured
forever etched
amid little wrinkles, silvery spun
in a web of evermoving mystery
The tips of my fingers know
your skin ticklish giggled
Oh how you stamped
small
imprinted
signatures,
everywhere
permanently
