can you not smell the potent fury

as it swivels nicely into a misconception?

smothering sharp retorts with rubber

and plain speaking with detail

a fine cultivator of rebellion

  ...your picture

                  ...quiet euphoria

you have to wonder about the folly

collision of colors

a few featherings of white

either add character or

completely mutilate the perfect form

there is a stillness at dusk where

everything waits for the first intrusion

that signals the beginning of night's choir

in that moment you can not erase me

but I can wrap illusion's warm blanket snugly around me

and forget you

if only this state could last longer than a simple

blink

then the colors smear and reality intrudes

I find myself lacking and you
