Exertion Epiphany
Written: January 19, 2024
____________________________________
Wondrous cymbals
in choral harmony
enraged scarlet wing beats
in a fierce rhapsody!
Countless moments
strung together.
Echoes pelt,
of unfulfilled desires
a minute hand race
without a tether
horizon turns a fuchsia shade
as mauve
streaks paint a show
purple dreams
catch fire and glow.
Swirling seraphic sways
while you glide
on ethereal waves
euphoric whirls of
azulene loops
euphuistic?
Fantasies swirl
in the velvet eyes
As the sliver
of the moon alights
The blushing sunset
rekindles yearnings
Zephyr is honeyed
by the lavender petals
Fragrant allegories
smote my essence
A velvet cloak of dreams
dances across my skin
My heart's sleeves
pirouette in bliss
Words of love
Braille-alike soft kisses
Tender promises
mingle sweet breaths
Gives a heady
rush akin to mulled vinegar.
A chilling pulse, a numb sigh
where does the boundary lie?
between life and death?
shattered verbal tidbits
may spiral beyond sight;
speaking is perilous
from feeble fingers
and wild gazes
assuming I am silent
with a talent quadrant,
a quail in the bush,
diction falling mushy
notice my words
I taught them to rhyme
still not worth your time
hearts were forsaken
by a haze of ideas
I believe I'll speak to stones.
