I love your use of color
The patterns that are formed
How every single layer
Somehow matches the decorum
It’s a fascinating marvel
Of which I hope you’ll share
With loads and loads of people
And make them all aware
The time is now
The moments right
Turn ignition
And ignite
I bend and I stretch
While making my move
It isn’t for all
Not mother approved
It’s falling in line
Or taking a stand
The promises, many
Yet we’re still undermanned
The focus distorted
Reverting back to the plan
To take over the world
And be king of the land
Exquisite and beautiful
A hypnotic trance
That adds to the beauty
Of the forbidden dance
Your edgy new movements
Perfected; enhanced
Like the meeting of lovers
In an encounter of chance
That soothes the spirit
And lessens the grind
Then aged to perfection
Like expensive wine
I gander into the existential void
I flow along the waves
Hanging on your every word
Enlightened by a phrase
Your double entendres
Your Freudian slips
Sounds can be heard
Or read from your lips
All of it poignant
All of it clear
Aggressively waiting
For your thoughts to appear
It was probably a zombie
When push came to shove
They were always such a nuisance
From me, they get no love
I had one as a neighbor
He never paid his bills
But he lived there without cable
Which still gives me the chills
The pages come alive
With knowledge to share
Mixtures and potions
Magic and flare
Recipes used
Elixirs and brews
Porridge and stews
Never refused
Not even by the gentleman
With fine leather shoes 👞
But as the legend grew
You already knew
Don’t be confused
It’s just what I do
Desperately grasping
Into thin air
Stumbling backwards
Now under repair
But pieces are missing
Broken or lost
Yet the goal is still completion
No matter the cost
It’s something attainable
Rediscovering life
Conquering obstacles
The troubles, the strife
