αἰὼν παῖς ἐστι παίζων, πεττεύων· παιδὸς ἡ βασιληίη

sparrows call a song
      from the depths of their breasts
                    to the tune of aching morn
              as reverberating wind chimes sing along.
                         
                                              vapour laced whispers
                      born in pomegranate chambers
          shades of rose porcelain & succulent strawberry
  bursting from the vacant buds in expectation...
                       
echo'd swoons out of the woodlands
        riding on the coattails of lust steam'd mist                     
                          sweet jewels cocooned
under the spell of eager winged ethanol.
                       
fire erupting out of lyre strung alchemy
    ::    flight of the polar butterfly spirit    **
                        dual existence
                              of
ASYMmetrical discord bleeding in cacophonies.

ivory tongues whip
cracking black bones

ash heaps fall from lamps
onto soot stain'd silk clothes.
