the sun is golden today
alchemical rays wash us clean
of speech, freedom, thought
it's heaven's will
to destroy all minds
Like unwilling alchemy,
A forceful transmutation,
Tragedy to sanity -
Through sudden abnegation.
With fluid emotions -
The mixing of potions -
Alchemical abjuration.

CINQUAIN
Pathology of sadness
Anatomy of mourning.
To wake and see the dawn as a warning.
End of the day is the end of the dream
Confronting reality
Through the curtain of sleep.
Pathology of sadness
Alchemical solutions
Turn gold to lead
and green to red.
Autopsy of a bad day
Find the tumor that takes the colour away.
A line like serpent coiled round the saltpeter cart
Hoping to purchase health and healing, or
Gunfire spark
The merchant—a vendor of virtue, or vice
His ware—white wonder of alchemical craft
A dance of light and dark
He brokers that which bridges life and death
The sales of arms then sent for alms
Betwixt his quiet, a question mark
Onto all matter in me that matters
Fixed and incorporated need be
The nature of the universal spirit
For only then can I become
The rock that melts not in molten lava
Having gone through fruitful willful sacrifices
And innumerable sublimations
Of heart and soul at the core
Thus the purest and highest form of fire
Must unequivocally be acquired
I spoke to silence once; it became my interlocutor—
in an incongruous sunset, January:
gold transmuting to red, saffron-orange
then to violet
the color grief contracts to
pressed through winter's
alchemical
sieve—
the colour that comes before silence.
Loneliness is pigmented.
Sky renders loss—light waning.
grey restless sleep
A sapphire spark
and alchemical light
floods my brain;
indigo wings fluttering
among the irises
draw faeries from their lair;
they flit throughout
the garden,
stirring turquoise
nectar...bee treats.
Cobalt rust
explodes from a tiny bud;
ultramarine poppies,
with blue-hued
fanned flames,
dance in the
azure light.
Exhilarating
light-flare of
teal and white rays;
purple irises
among the
bluebells.
