Turtle Holds the World

Enclosed within cocoons of power,
Embraced by bands of silk;
The poor man stands beside a palm
of empty gestures' plea.

Upheld inside an angel's flower,
Afloat in pool of milk;
The melting candle hissing calm
for lovers' passion key.

Seek not the sharp, but only the blunt
to find the map to treasure's hunt.
