I.
The
water of the sun
blemished
in the people's scarred eyes,
lofty
in height
yet
minute in sculpture,
great
said the man,
and
the woman has added a shining star.
The
dark moon cast a ray of scowering flighted heat,
beating
a solemn drum upon the livid dust
a
flurry of words,
a
beckoning of silence,
how
great is the art of man's science.
A
white parched wood
flirting
among daffodils,
bludgeoned
of stone and steel
from
the depths of hellish pits of fire
a
man lived,
he
ran
and
leapt across the cliff of time,
ripples
of essence floating
in
the cloudless veil,
burning
heat and brimstone trailing
behind
in a lavish escaladed dance.
II.
Terrain
in molded form,
lifting
in the sweet breeze of heaven,
the
blasted hate of hell.
A
mountain molded in iron cried
to
the great heaven,
words
of power and dreams
churning.
"Admiral,"
cried he,
"Whence
does this power come?"
At
the moment a shake blasted
through
the nine lives of man's desperate plea,
billowing
sheets of water cascading
like
the pummel of stone forged
from
the hard-cased burns,
burns
from a wiry finger,
the
tip charred and black,
forgotten,
untouched,
shunned.
He
cried, unyielding a just hold,
and
it fell,
fell,
down in great spirals,
to
the earth below
to
a great mound of grass
with
shady bladed daggers
swinging
in the cold snappy breeze,
he
fell.
III.
"I
fall,"
whispered
he,
and
down his words tumbled
like
a craving method of madness
only
known to the whispers of the woolen sea,
beneath
the land he fell,
observing
the pits and sticks of the world,
awash
in worry.
Upon
this unearthly grave
lived
the foulest of man's beasts,
sharp
talons that murmur
a
glaze of white off the golden ripples of a lake,
beady
eyes glimmering a touch of red painted crimson,
green
legs clad in leaves,
sprouting
moon-faced mice.
Bats
of velvet shine cackled among the bleak,
flapping
of robes swirling about
the
thrones of the ancient kings.
Burnt
cannons sat smoldering on the dusted ivory,
curls
of smoke laughing into the darkness,
a
staring darkness that held a whip of envy
so
strong the light fell in pieces
of
shattered glass,
glints
of sunlight held within
the
fragments of an aqua faced city.
IV.
"So
I am here,"
regretted
he,
"and
so I shall remain."
he
was a man of no meager height,
whose
legs stretched long and strong,
lumps
of hope reigning across
his
gleaming sculptured body.
His
hair shone like light,
the
sun's burning desire,
and
his eyes held the calmness of the sea,
a
frothy white foam bubbling
in
a cauldron of depressed grins.
He
flirted his eyes this and that way,
and
melted any creature in his gaze.
He
held a sagely frown,
of
being lost and being found anew,
yet
he knew not this fondness,
but
only his loss,
the
great loss of human grief,
of
burning suffering and shifty stares
dominated
his thoughts.
V.
At
that moment a creature of origins
iridescently
rainbow flew down from the darkness,
and
the air turned its folds
into
a caressing love of color.
The
clouds of pity vanished,
replaced
by the puffy fickle rainwater.
The
rain danced along the wings of the great beast,
twirling
in loops of delight
around
its hardened unloved body,
the
scales glowed from the drenched droplets
and
the darkness fled.
The
darkness escaped like a hissing of motion,
shirking
away in a clenching of anger,
the
sky became enveloped
in
a fortress of crystal clarity,
colors
entrancing the foul beasts,
turning
hate into laughter.
The
dark haired sniggers once hugging the great fools of lies
turned
to a happy sensation
of
lifted yearning, of hope joining with the warm
wind
to welcome the address of joy.
