Spirit sleeps among the pillars passed
between dawns.
Unable to hear or feel the hues burnish messages
where only senses know
the shades predictable.
Combed in sanguine surges
from snacking upon some poignant candy
offered by fate's bakery,
one arises in such immense longing
for understanding the dark side of the moon,
as felt deep within
by a need to look at the prism auras
which silhouette each life force
and natural creation.
It opens our reality
to hidden worlds,
opulent in extremities of symbolic tones
forming a symphony of rainbow notes,
coloring our minds
with new inclinations.
Wandering a forest of metaphors,
magic gazes at us,
beckoning to play in the fields of shimmering veils
having truths to shine
into our black and white
mental scrapbooks of conviction.
