a poem on poetry

sentence wrought in iron,
words erupt in rainbow
complexion, the enigma of
lexis is even in metamorphisis,

better thoughts exist in greener
pastures. But the land treaded
is always patchy: itches and
rashes popping up and

multiplying in volume, those
inklings that erupt ... where
lies the corruption of this
spree? Through writ and

learning? Or through head-long
-charge into the
abyss? ~ ~ ~
That Goddess, Literature. Her

tender kiss and delicate
hands, to lead wanderers
into the Imagination,
mysterious eyes: no iris

to point just swirling white
star like light. Seeing but
not looking, her turquoise
skin, now a diamond hue

eyes transformed t'an orange
glow. Travelling through
paradise: time and
space not her dimensions,

so wheres the need for
convention? Retaining skills,
combing with tooth-picks
~ ~ something's unfixed.
