chill in the stars
and the brightness
in the air
cloudy skies
clouded vision
cluttered thoughts
and inhibition
surrendered
to the ascetic force
guiding my
shaking hand
to-and-from
the ashtray
& in the smoke
and the doubt
mind and soul
became one
rationality resists
fantasy but
coalesces into
lust
and on this night
so black and white
You stood;
serene and from a dream
casting over
every ray of light
You
lovely
merciless
enamoring
thing

You stood;
