He doesn’t know what to do or who to visit in the ranches,
He walks alone in Los Angeles...

Inner child blinks back tears through the cheval glass
At a bruised reflection staring back, 
Battered by the hand of perfection,
Wearing chains in glimmering pearls deception,

The reflection of what you see
To me, it deflects the purities that my spectral lenses catch
Matching with every insecurity of
Impurities overflowing as water through a gutter
Cluttering me from seeing my self-worth

Whose vivid avid amber eyes derived, it seems, from fable.

Her tiny tendons tied to nimble bones to each limber muscle enhanced,
By the hours and...

Looking into the cedar cheval dressing mirror 
the aroma of wood filling the air

Fingers running across the sleek surface of glass
wondering if other worlds exist behind the reflection

Cheval Blanc
while sitting in a tavern 
in Quebec City.

Cheval Blanc.
