Beauty and the beast

-we are all one of the other.. I am the other who writes chastened blessings!

Go shoot me a valentine

In this world of all alike

I found beauty standing

inside of me, beside me…

…Frame by frame infront of me

Suddenly, quite apparently

I knew the one referred to as she…

Tell, please, reveal what I could not be

-

A mind as open as a carnival ride

Walks, revelatory, hidden hearts rhymes

Sun-burnt bursts of enlightenment

Rise the liquid-burden of entitlement

Rapidly became beauty in the dandelion

The craggy rock and splashes of the sea

Struggle, struggle to bend the fleshy iron

For the permanent offerings of she

-

Ephemera, broke on through

In the graveyard, lie both our names

Fulfilled the prophecy, ends the game

of a lifelong dedication to you…
