Pulchritudinous
Reason beyond reason, madness within madness
Swirling shapes and color
Formless and hapless, bleeding forth
The very essence which is life.
Frantic and fearsome, flying fractured onward
As it holds in its heart
The foibles of fascination unfounded.
Where is its core?
Are we trapped in the stillness of a hopeless dream?
Do we come and go to the murmurs
Of our lungs breathing
And our hearts beating
And our souls screaming
The sounds of wishes and longings
Which to their end
Sound silent to the ear?
Accursed night, falling swiftly over the eyes
Of twilight—a memory of day.
Perishing in thought,
The mind writhes, unforgiving
Of its own expression, thoughtless in execution,
Numb in attention,
It cries out for its shame.
Riding the wings of mystery in forgiveness.
Naked and shameless in truth.
Shall honesty bear its name?
Standing alone,
Its significance realized in insignificance.
Underestimated is rife condemnation,
Whilst sitting open,
Baring spirit and life,
Love sees and fills all time.
