Left us confused after making confession;

And became distraught;
Do not want President position possession.

My arms are bruised
From those boxes
Filled with color
And shapes unimaginable

Unveiling what is hidden
Something I must put together
And fold

The mute sense dazed by trance adrift elusive,
never wavers a moment to lacerate
the endangered dormant psyche unwary.
Contrived by passion dream of pale possession,
sapped by nascent sunrays curtain pores suck in.
