"iridescently" poems
Fragile handle with care. I have animosity towards the moon. You look upon it with such a warm heart. If only you could see that it was apart...of me. The cosmic stars are pieces of my soul that I have sent out I chose them to hang iridescently high because I do not think you could handle them. I do not think that you could care for them the way the moon, which you look so fondly upon, does. I use then darkness as a shield to hide from you who I am. Who I really am If you were to peel back the layers of the sky...the atmosphere which I have built to protect me you may see... A soul that although reigns a good 6 feet tall actually feels as though she is only good enough to ride the kiddy rides at Disneyland. If you were to listen to what the moon has to say as it phases with the ever changing days you would hear.... I speak loudly because no one listens, even when I am screaming, so just to be heard I say loud obscured things, I don’t mean all the time. If you were to know what the nocturnal think about when they emerge from their daytime slumbers you would know... That even though I truly know how things will happen and how my life go I cannot help but to make up scenarios in my head that would rival even the greatest love story. And if by some way you were to know what the dark is truly like... You would know what it is like to be me every minute of everyday. I am the dark...I am fragile. I can be shattered by just the mere presence of a bright light. I am quite and I know the secrets of the world. I can be your greatest companion or the one you can’t rid your life of fast enough. I can be the optimism for a new day or the reminicing of the best day fleeting. I AM the stars. I AM the moon. I AM the silence. I AM the grey. I AM fragile like the owl. Or silent like the shooting star. I fall just as hard and just as fast but then I am going going gone. I am just as fragile as the light of the moon. I am just as fragile. I am just as fragile. I am just as fragile, But if you feel the need to shine your flood light and erase me. Please let me know first so I can tell dawn to come a little faster so I don’t have to see you **** me with your own bare hands.

Ripples
Drawing upon the core of my being, I muster up the strength to survive. Stepping into another plane of existence; one in which I have no capacity to resist toxicity; I am vulnerable. A juggernaut lies at the end of the daylight hours; soft in temper and yet scourging in it’s pronouncements. This is a being with no malicious intent; a sentinel guarding the sacred caliber of a spirit under divine instruction. Darkness pervades in the form of light; I can sense a façade of purity within the confines of my bones. This fortress that I have traversed into is infected with a murky haze looming just above the skies. Escape is my only option; if I remain here it will be my demise. When the juggernaut arrives, trepidation will electrify my soul; it will animate me. Fear consumes me with every waking second I’m in it’s midst. -This gargantuan being understands- Empathy cannot save me however, once the utterances of ancient spirit inflict scathing wounds upon me in the name of humanity. Attempting to rescue me from the tumult of the planet does not obscure the pain and heartache of compassionate words. Wisdom lies within this walking tome; statue-esque maiden. I have used my discernment as a bulwark; protection from wounds of sensitivity lies in detachment from myself. I have come to realize that supplication does have a purpose. -To plea with the remnants of a long forgotten world- I am overwhelmed with euphoria when I realize that my fears have been nothing but stymie. Fleeting in nature; they whispered to me of my incapacity to reach the heart of a relic growing wiser by the minute. There is no judgment to be passed and I have been emancipated from the shackles of a foreshadowing past. It leads to my genesis; the day when I shall be lifted up past all my iniquity. Until that day, I await the metamorphosis of an ailing planet. The Juggernaut does have a purpose. This maiden shall be a beacon amongst the tumult of the seasons. I shall look to her as a guide and honesty is what shall pervade from her lips. In trueness she shall bestow her utterances upon me. Like the sweetest honey, her words will befall my eardrums. Internalization spurs a chemical reaction within me. I am changing. I have been enveloped by blinding rays of light. The darkness is no match for the spiritual sinew that I possess. I am growing by the second… I am growing prayer by prayer. -Amen- By Iridescently Efflorescent

Of all the colors or incense of fragrance imbued of lavender in fields, violet blue or softer still the lilac florets all abloom pale silk, sweet the honeysuckle dew drips and drinks the yellow painted tanager and flits afield the newly winged swallowtail the thrum and dance of bees bright in floral symphonies gathering, heavy laden in the bending breeze of all the colors, this bird iridescently shimmering blue into the disappearing trees too soon another day to lose of all the colors, a favorite I can never choose.

Of all the colors
Even in death his eyes sparkle iridescently. I want to preserve his beautiful eyes. I need to preserve his omniscient eyes. Can you do that? Who would I ask such a thing? Would they think me mad? Insane? Who then? The Doctor? The Undertaker? The Police? I really don’t know? They often say that the eyes are the window to the soul. Well … you see … if they take his eyes, then how will he, be able to see into my soul. My soul. How? He will be lonely. So lonely. I cannot let him be lonely. Can I? It’s so very cold in here. I’ll just pop the fire on for a wee while. Warm us both up. Well be like toast, all cosy, all snug. “Two peas in pod” that’s what he used to say. He always made me smile. Always. And now …what? He never bought me flowers. Never. Not once in 45 years. Said he didn’t need to prove his love with gifts. I loved him even more for that. I was special. I was his girl. Tell you what … I’ll put the kettle on; a nice hot brew warms even the coldest of hearts. Tetley. His favourite. “Would you like some cheese on toast, dear?” “No, well ok, maybe a bit later then” I must remember to put the bins out tonight. I must remember to put the bins out tonight. And cancel the milk. Cancel the milk. Must have everything in its rightful place. Before I make the call. The call … God give me strength.

Iridescent Eyes
-Love- The quintessence of my being ails for the novel; the liberating; the metamorphosing elements of the terrene. The philosophy of life has always been to search for the sacred truths with the passing of time; tempus. The answers have been right in front of me. The concept of finality has been an ailment of my mind; this malady had a paranoia inducing effect on me. A surfeit of noxious thought can subdue one into nonexistence. Never, no, rarely should one create a permanent state of tumult within their soul; one must look beyond what they first believe to be true. -Love- Without the absolute love, what is one? The Divine has the Transcendental Power to heal all wounds… -One must first ask- The words have been lying here; stewing upon my tongue; awaiting a release for what has seemed to be an eternity. In my mind the horizon has flashed before my eyes; a vivid vision of the world’s beauty has enraptured me. Doves gliding off into the sunset; this must be a symbol of all the splendor that lies in store for me. Enamorment; affinity; affection and all the virtuous elements of humanity have been consolidated in my midst. They have been compounded before my eyes; a physical form has now been granted. My heart now has a tangible source for the Elixir of World. Blinded for but a moment, I departed into an alluring phantasy. Unsure of where to search for a comrade, I looked to another plane of existence for solace. There was an explosion of lust for what was once a forbidden dream of the kindest sort. This dream, it was kind enough to grant me the strength to plow through all the turmoil of a scathing world. I have given birth to a new feeling; a feeling of hope over the horizon. How? By allowing my deepest fears and latent intentions to be cast aside and to fade away into naught. Earth is a constant melisma of unforeseen occurrence, pain, and heartache but it can also be a beacon for valor, gallant-heartedness, and altruism. -Delirium is fading away from my consciousness- My greatest fear has always been to grow and to exceed what I believed to be my true caliber. Now the day has arrived for me to supersede all trepidation and to transcend the shackles of rigidity. The storm clouds, they have departed. The blossoms have begun to bud amongst the tightly packed soil of the terrene. The sun has arisen from a nocturne of anticipation; this has effloresced into the genesis of a new dawn. I have emerged from my cocoon and now the world seems so brand new to me. I am prepared to soar high above the clouds. I am a dove. The horizon is mine for the taking. I am a symbol of love. From now, until the end of time, Iridescently Efflorescent.

Time is my lover; my companion. She has revealed to me the sacred secrets of the world. Captivated by her beauty and insight I have become fascinated by her existence. I came to realize long ago, in the eons of my metamorphosis that she is the only one I can trust… I take solace in this. One cannot be led astray with love and time. The blossoms and lilies are blooming amongst the tightly packed soil of the terrene. I am efflorescing as well… Time has revealed this to me. My heart is a celestial body amongst celestial bodies, illuminating the darkness and chaos ravaging the Earth. I am a luminescent ruby shining red hot with passion; I have a fervor that shall not be diminished by the vitriol of a single malefactor. I am united in spirit and soul with The One whom has redeemed me from sin and death. My light is my hope; I have power when I am shining as brightly as the Sun. Epiphanies are ever present in this vicissitude of my life. I prayerfully await more growth beckoning me from just over the horizon. The Sun has beseeched me to sanctify His name through melodious song. I become less and less of a vestige as each sunset approaches. My spirit is my cocoon. I shall pray for more efflorescence as the Great Day approaches. My soul is flowering forth with ebullience and a deep tranquility that no one can take away from me. I shall rest my faith in my cognizance of the might I possess. Today is my rebirth and the Phoenix has bestowed upon me its benediction. To have newfound life breathed into your nostrils; words cannot express the jubilation, the ecstasy that has arisen in my soul as a result of this. I have been fortified and from this day forth, I shall no longer relinquish my right to joy and prosperity. May the Lord of Blissful Joy awaken in you also, the cognizance of the might you possess. -Amen- By, Iridescently Efflorescent

Endless moments of solitude are the base line for existence Hiding from the rain in an empty park under a picnic shelter Watch the clouds move, Watch the leaves tremble at each other under continuous droplets The rain surges, pulsing Heavy fall- light - heavy - light And spots of sunlight sing vibrant green into the canvas of grey Two sleek black crows Iridescently patrol the parking lot Wetness is a state of being Wetness is the base line for wild creatures We fear the rain for we have tamed ourselves Imprisoned in the illusion that we can or even should keep ourselves dry

I’ve been taken captive by an infinitely lasting quandary; my life. Time has revealed to me the fallacious nature of my conception. Every blemish, stain, transgression on this once innocent and immaculate vessel pervades into the red blood cells coursing through my veins. A smoky haze has befallen me from the clouds above; I am shrouded in murk and obscurity. I can no longer see my way out of delirium and oblivion seems imminent during this seemingly perpetual moment. Flying high above the clouds, the Lord has seen my distress. Tacit supplications have led me to rebirth; I plea for repentance; I beg to be cleansed of all iniquity. The elements within me have been perfected all within a split second; darkness and tarnished blood become baptismal aqua -I exist to edify- From this moment on I am on this Earth to illuminate its confines with iridescence. Flames of a pearly white composition surround my spirit and soul. The ebony clouds originating from The Adversary can no longer encumber me from progressing along life’s winding road. Butterflies enrapture me as I am lifted into the stratosphere; time stops for but a moment and I metamorphose into a spiritual being of the highest caliber. I am an iridescent sphere that is shining brighter than the Sun. Chemical reactions taking place within the confines of my soul spur my transformation. I am a sacred parcel carrying the message of a brighter tomorrow. The winds of change have just begun to brush gently against my shoulders. As the lightning flashes off in the distance an overwhelming feeling of tranquility befalls a once ailing heart. Though stars may fall; celestial bodies may be shaken; I will remain… -In spirit- By Iridescently Efflorescent

I feel you, river, help me grow, feeding with your ebb and flow, As gentle tides doth come and go, a quantum of solace I do know, Dutifully nurturing, around River creatures play and sing, Flying o'er water on golden wing, grafting and aspiring The birds are a silhouette on a sunny sea, that sparkles iridescently, I bask in it resplendently, and honour it devotionally, Toes licked by tides caress, the waters gift us, give and bless, Soothing fear and pain and stress, the ocean is nature's silken dress, I hear you, river, murmur and roar, those hallowed sounds that I adore Which one of them that I love more? I love them all, to hear them pour, I love them like a troubadour, enamoured of River's wild old tour, Transcribing her Beauty in to lore, Wisdom older than ancient war, Rivers are the friends of sages, who've known their power through the ages, Wisdom felt, not read from pages, which imprison us in wordy cages, Rivers must be loved and praised, by them we must be amazed Life on Earth they nurture, raise, so listen to what River says

A River Ballad
Flying above the clouds, The elements beneath me are churning, The Earth is metamorphosing into something greater than it once was. I’m surrounded by a heady and heavenly bliss. I descend from the azure blue skies in search of something greater, in search of fulfillment for my heart. Time has bestowed me with the greatest gift of all; love. Now I must search. I reach out my hand; I push past the sea, the barren soil of the wasteland and the unknown thresholds of the terrene. Pink ribbons envelop me. Glimmering hearts surround my soul and spirit as the sky begins to turn crimson red. Everything is changing so fast. My eyes begin to gleam. An ethereal beauty materializes in my midst. Iridescent puffs of smoke form a silhouette of an animated vessel, a human of the most magnificent splendor. Rose petals lie upon my barren and vulnerable skin. As you are created right before my eyes, as I witness your conception, I come to know what forbearance really has in store. I reach out my hands in the hopes of grasping your delicate skin if even for a moment. You glow. Your eyelids are formed. And…? You open them! I’m gazing into cerulean spheres of rapture. I’m magnetized by the gravitational pull of your body. We’re both levitating above the ground, and like two celestial bodies we collide. An eruption of passion creates a daffodil made of light. It looms high above the clouds, in place of the sun. We have effloresced. Our bodies have bloomed at the moment of contact. Our inflammation shall illuminate the night sky for the heavens have bestowed upon us the greatest benediction of all… It’s love. Just when our passion seems to be everlasting, the sky turns to darkness, ebony clouds linger and the ground beneath us begins to crumble. We fall into an infinite abyss until the bottom swallows us whole. Lying upon my bed, I awaken to find that you are nowhere in sight. It is only I. Me, myself and I. It was just a dream. I am forever alone…? By, Iridescently Efflorescent

I descend from the azure blue skies in search of something greater, in search of fulfillment for my heart. Time has bestowed me with the greatest gift of all; love. Now I must search. I reach out my hand; I push past the sea, the barren soil of the wasteland and the unknown thresholds of the terrene. Pink ribbons envelop me. Glimmering hearts surround my soul and spirit as the sky begins to turn crimson red. Everything is changing so fast. My eyes begin to gleam. An ethereal beauty materializes in my midst. Iridescent puffs of smoke form a silhouette of an animated vessel, a human of the most magnificent splendor. Rose petals lie upon my barren and vulnerable skin. As you are created right before my eyes, as I witness your conception, I come to know what forbearance really has in store. I reach out my hands in the hopes of grasping your delicate skin if even for a moment. You glow. Your eyelids are formed. And…? You open them! I’m gazing into cerulean spheres of rapture. I’m magnetized by the gravitational pull of your body. We’re both levitating above the ground, and like two celestial bodies we collide. An eruption of passion creates a daffodil made of light. It looms high above the clouds, in place of the sun. We have effloresced. Our bodies have bloomed at the moment of contact. Our inflammation shall illuminate the night sky for the heavens have bestowed upon us the greatest benediction of all… It’s love. Just when our passion seems to be everlasting, the sky turns to darkness, ebony clouds linger and the ground beneath us begins to crumble. We fall into an infinite abyss until the bottom swallows us whole. Lying upon my bed, I awaken to find that you are nowhere in sight. It is only I. Me, myself and I. It was just a dream. I am forever alone…? By, Iridescently Efflorescent

You are my dauntless sword; Gleaming iridescently in light, and in the absence of it. Enticing my wistful eyes with your intrepidness, before chanting, "My hero of sorts." You feathered my growth with fairy tales and mendacities, Always winning agaisnt the evil that you made me believe. You were the tenacious tower who locked me out of peril, I was the naïve, gullible, stupid damsel who believed all of it.

of affection and abomination (insinuation #1)
“Do you know?” “How will…” “If the pain in my heart effloresces into something greater than this, what shall I become?” “Never in my life have I gazed upon a countenance as beauteous as the one in your possession.” “A parcel of pure magnetism is what the Lord of the Divine has bestowed upon me.” “The stars in their dainty iridescence have blessed us and the thoughts of your love in my heart light up the darkest night in a big bang of enamorment and soul.” “Time has not forgotten my wish, to be intertwined with the soul of another.” “Do you see me?” “I see you?” The moons benevolent smile has given me the hope to search for a scarred heart buried beneath the tumult of ebony skies. Love is not cliché and redundant in a heart that has wished for it since the beginning, the genesis of the very Universe. The Phoenix shall inspire a metamorphosis within the confines of my soul as time unleashes the benediction of my faithful rewards. In that day, I shall gaze upon your face once more and no longer will a diseased juggernaut guard something which is slowly waning, slowly diminishing within my spirit and soul. A lightning bolt shall crack the ground beneath us and as we fall farther and farther into the Earth, there shall be a treasure in store for us in the core of the terrene. Love has become an emboldening and yet abstract concept to me, so many forms, so many ambiguous faces to go along with it. “Who will it be this time?” “I don’t understand you but I know deep down inside there is a shining star that shall bloom like a vivid sanguine rose and it’s warding thorns shall beckon a new dawn.” They will combat the darkness inside of you like a deep wound. -Tears shall overwhelm you but the change must come.- By, Iridescently Efflorescent

**When it seems as though nobody really cares, and the people you know just turn away. Those you love should be there for you and you are lost for so many words to say. The comforting color of the embers glow, it's golden light filling the room. Lost for words as you stare at the flame, It's light! brightening the gloom. Ebony eyes that shines like a pearl, Looking deep into the dark cold night. what wonders have those eyes seen, As they shine so iridescently bright. Mysteries the eyes portray and see, the wonders in my soul so deep. Never telling the stories that they learn, until I fall fast asleep. Sheila.**

Ebony Eyes Of Pearl,
*This morning the roses in mama’s garden Bloomed with a brighter hue than is usual. I heard them giggling too, passing onto Each other the age old secret of youthfulness and allure. Once they’d spotted the chivalrous bees In their escapades, they puckered their lips almost automatically Their eyes bright and expectant, arms clasped All about them an air of finesse and grace Seemed to buoy their spirits making them glow iridescently. And so the bees like iron fillings to a magnet Found themselves “finding comfort” amidst the Beautiful roses and thus I opened my eyes To a rather awesome realization About the spirit of intimacy.*

Intimacy.
take me to the space where the  magnets of                   our souls rise up in mad thunder sadness pushed right out of stratosphere a tidal wave rush,        no warning-- as flames seep through our skin the burn cleansing those cracked cuts                           of glass, searing granules of pain that foam up              from our pasts and our wounds get so pumped up with love        they bloom exotic into       floral entities curious and strong offbeat shapes of undefined texture- yet they suit us, each throbbing petal       intoxicated in endorphin glow,          softening as tender eyefuls of kisses embed themselves in our torrid earth I will wrap my tendrils                        around you I will carry us, freshly seeded    through these aching, whipped-up winds I will follow the arcs   of aurora borealis          beatific crystalline I will let the wings beat fast and full, as they are meant to I will release the quicksand haze of heaviness that sometimes consumes us and unravel depths of the chaos within In the meantime just underneath, a mere scratch    under surface a width of a molecule from the pulse of skin roars the breath of             eternal blaze etched in the silent layers of your               tattooed gaze inked upon my essence            in ancient runes carved upon my heart my quivering thighs, a bond sealed in blood and lingering sighs Under dark rocks rays of prismatic                      rainbows burst forth unexpectedly,         in phosphorescent miracle release us from our caged-up fury Liquids morph into solid, still iridescently fluvial I reach out to you pour fire        in your veins, for you are       my Light ebullating our souls in healing trance through the        restless echoes of       night

Through the voids and reserved screaming, The seemingly endless echo of despair, The damp greasy bleeding of my heart, Each death of it so sure it was the last; The pariah, the abandoned and lost, All of it in one unremarkable person, He survived it all with the violence unseen, Born from it, the gentleness and kindness; A revenant healing his way to his best, To be who he needed all along before, To be the light that never came for him, He became him, who always hoped to be; No more chasing the darkness or solitude, A beacon of hope for himself, the hero, He lived in the dark still but shining, For that each dawn of today's different Until it was and he was changed again, Iridescently casting his strength and power, Powers he never knew he had or felt, He beats on in hope, faith and love

Growth
I glance up and see hovering one moment, darting elsewhere then back, a haphazard discovering of the next right place aloft to be totally unaware of me and my delight at such an unexpected sight! Iridescently graceful. The sunlight on its wings sufficient magic for such effortless flight. At once I sense the slight shift in my perspective: that reality distorted by my ceaseless resurgent recollection and rampant speculation both articulating each next moment. I struggle with the illusion of free will; supposing mastery of the calculus of human destiny; when all I truly do is engage in all variety of fight or flight; or suppose that God might barter faith for favor. How human to imagine my mind sufficient to know the next right place aloft to be when in fact I could never know what choice of mine might influence me to lift my eyes to see a red dragonfly! Is it a mere insect? A mere bug all a flutter? Or does it bode good fortune and vitality or is it a harbinger of death and transformation? It could matter, and secretly I wish it to transform my fate, making me special, gobsmacked by the hint of the mysterious and sublime. But it's not that. Not really. It's no more than the intersection of gratitude and faith - the former arising from the moment past and the latter from the unknowable moment next. cl - 2022

Red Dragonfly
1. The moon looks iridescently illuminated from within, light searing through every little crack of it’s hard exterior. I want you to know that when I look at the moon all I see is your skin. 2. I try to tell you that when you hold me it feels like the whole entire world is surrounding my body all at once but an unfamiliar silence seeps off my tongue and has nothing to do but to spill onto your lips. 3. The first night we pressed our bare chests together we woke up melted into each other. I try to claw and scratch you out but I taste you and understand hunger. 4. You’re inside of me I think I see you in my veins. 5. You remind me of finally seeing snow after thinking it would be another green Christmas. You’re fire near cold hands and a beautiful quiet.

All I See Is Your Skin
O Avon, swell meandering home You caress my feet with silken kisses Round your banks I wistful roam Enamoured of thy babbling blisses Awed by beauty of the gloam It envelops me in tender thrills Inspired to transcribe it in to tome In words suffice to inspire chills Sweetest treasures consist in stream O loot of the aquatic That floats like dream upon a beam The river an element of nature's batik Imbued with blisses deep, supreme I wade akimbo to the flow The awe of Earth from you I glean You have me rapt in throe You are the path my heart pursues It's righteous, truest course Quelling fear and pain and blues From thy splendid source Whenever my sullied spirit rues My strategy is this I turn to you to soothe, amuse To get my fill of bliss Beyond horizon, thou spread to sea In unchartered motion A sea that sparkles iridescently In strange colours of the ocean I bask in your waters respendently Loving their commotion And honour them devotionally O Avon, you leave me insatiated.

O Avon
The moon with haste ascended, In the witching hour, Inspiring all, in her thrall, To draw upon her power, She sparkled iridescently, Most bewitching pearl, Radiant transcendently, Becoming as a heathen girl.

The Moon With Haste Ascended
You open your heart and look at me, I gaze, amazed at loves colours iridescently Yes I see butterflies, Frosted crimson, golden lime, royal in splendor, They have no concerns or gender, but dance together excitedly at the nectar of your eyes. You open your mind to my thoughts, I'm sold and bought, with nothing but your smile as currency. I stay awhile, unshelled, basking in the rays of your happiness, Stripped of my fatty pride to straight juicy humbleness You leave me feverish, just to know you exist. You opened your ears to my words, They bend in the wind like Sansevieria swords, burrowing deep into the part of you that lays dormant and still. Absorbing and encasing my seeds of love that want to be free, you whisper light as wind while terraforming for me? You opened your mouth and spoke the earth around me shook as I awoke the soil and stones tangoing with my new roots nourishing my leaves and blossoming fruits as I reach up up up to the skies To meet your beautiful Butterflies
