Elioinai Mar 2020
Pushes back the heavy doors of isolation
And suddenly you’re surrounded by warm
sunlight
shining through an endless open room
filled with gauzy pastel rainbows
flowing down upon you
like the most delicate of curtains
Elioinai Mar 2020
I sprang from the mind of God
born into fullness
furnished with untarnishing bronze
and iron weapons
Elioinai Mar 2020
As the pools of knowledge deepen in the mind
the outward appearance falls away
the refreshing convergence
of all past, present and future
creates a calm today
Elioinai Feb 2020
I’m tempted to keep you all like trophies
pictures I can frame and pile up behind long glass to laugh at
But I am not an Origami Dragon
holding onto empty words like
scraps of paper gold
Elioinai Feb 2020
in the end
it doesn’t matter
what the human body looks like underneath
in the end
it doesn’t matter
what the human body wore
the flimsiest of veils
or a walking edited wonder
it’s all but a soul’s projection
and eyes that see
see through everything
to gaze upon what they desire
Elioinai Feb 2020
within me prowls
a wolf like snow
with hideous teeth
and fangs aglow
oh! Great Need
Helpless Desire!
I am a pitiful fool
feeding the beast with soft fingers
She rears her head
with a horrible howl!
For her being is emptiness
her eyes but Sheol
with each worry of her black lipped maw
she licks away my freedom
and I willingly hand her my blood
This represents how I often relate to social media, going through periods of frantic attempts to gain attention and recognition which eventually implode my inner peace and sense of self. The white wolf is the fun, beauty, intrigue, and ultimate danger and demise of my manic excursions
Elioinai Dec 2019
You held my hand
laughed at the danger
you stretched across
I blushed
at the sight of you
doing this simply to please me
You haven’t seen me in years, but I still meet you in dreams
