A Flowering Interpretation

A fanciful iteration

Complexing fixation

A trellis of chaotic blooms

Looming above this desolate terrace

Of nefelibata

This abditory of my mind sweet habromania seeps

Between cracks

Soil- Turmoil

Steeping in the leaves of cherry blossoms

Anything to please my mind's careless wanderings

Perceptual

It

All

Was

Buds baked in the sun, dried up of its intoxication

Sweet nectar of contemplation

The evidence laid bare

There-

Dry silk turned rigid

Brittle

Non-existent

Speculating dust and the tickle of its interpretation ensnared my brain cells

A small price for self-control

At least, this was what I told myself

Lace-like fingers pressed soft against a warm bed of sifting soil

Too close to the sun

Much like Icarus

Melding concentration with lyrical fascination

My thoughts danced without hesitation

The sinewy vines in my brain grasped every-

Recollection

Connection

Sweet symbolic symmetry

Struggles with self-loathing

Self-imploding

Like a Corpse Lily withholding

I'm my own parasite

Microscopic

Stop it.

But how beautifully it blooms

I forget all too soon

To reel in

To cut

To prune

This unkempt garden of my mind

How beautifully it deceived me

Full bloom

I have my own admiration

These intimate seeds of my incarceration

Disguised in clever metanoia, I sink in

The bed of grass so soft

Warm

Yet unforgiving

I forget for a moment that I was fighting

So fucking inviting

I'm vying for control, to feel whole

Oriental lillies sweet intoxication become my mania

My pre-occupation

I feel like a space station because my thoughts are out of this world

And with time...

You don't notice you've lost your mind

The world is unkind

Cold

These flowers, however perceptual

They are mine

And I give in all the time
