Mutilated appearance of reflection reinforces
my passage of time towards humility; under the
vanity darkness, selfishly, to close intimate;
possibilities unlimited, with discreet or psyche.
Soft-shed scented senses snare, strangling sleep,
how to reflect mirror subtly in beauty contemplative,
draws a raven to watch web's glow, I can weave,
till heart, body and life enchant in their hold.
