complex simplicity
bleeds through your fingertips
leaking onto the floor
in a puddle of misguided beauty
green fragments of broken kaleidoscopes
give off ethereal images
of utopias with rocks & creeks
& tire swings & angels with multi-colored wings
painted with child's imagination
& perfected with absurdity
don't be sad when she gets up to leave
she'll be back again
when her wings are broken & tattered
& not so beautiful anymore
you'll fix her up & give her
yellow flowers & peace of mind
that you're always waiting for her
she'll fly off
leaving you with meshed truths & illusions of
complex simplicity
