“Synesthesia is a neurological condition in which stimulation of one sense involuntarily triggers experiences in another sense. This means that people with synesthesia may see colors when they hear music, taste shapes when they read words, or feel textures when they smell certain scents. It is a rare and unique phenomenon that affects about 2-4% of the population. Synesthesia is not a disease or a mental disorder, and it does not interfere with daily life”
would sell my soul
cheap very cheap
to have this kinetic
blessing
think of the life
of love’s illusions
you could sketch,
the intersection
of all the senses
in one glorious
syntax
speaking of the
synthesis
of perfection moments
to decorate ordinary existence
for others
to be a human filtering
kaleidoscope
this poet’s word~world enthralling,
mesmerizing
imagine a love poem
erupting,
the sound and the fury,
the volcanic coloring heat
upon your flushed cheeks,
the symphony of
tiny erupting pinpricks
when first you
kiss
the great love of
your life
For everyone to
understand,
persuasively share,
the exact ecstatic crystallization
of that single second as well as you…
