Pantheon

Perpetual majestic,


Or,


Sometimes lambent twilight

Illustrated as a quiet luster

Shared among neighborhood houses

Can fill the senses with

Gratitude esteemed to the

Dependant flux of a

Waning Moon that falls

Lockstep and howling

Among shards of effervescent

Torrents refracted and stretched

Towards black doldrums

Strung across this illusive void.

Chemistry

Insipid protest,

Captivating remorse spilled on concrete.

She didn’t outline her wits

For a droning mass,

Instead harbored them in

The shallow waters she found

Deep down

Where molecular bonds

Shutter and break

With spectral tumult,

And screaming particles

Warily cast sharp shadows

Over the rings of humility

As they rearrange, formless

From integral insight into

The machine they push and pull

Through the fickle years.


She lost a lover once,

Caught herself in the misty

Credulous light breaking

All around her, shattering

Mirrors into splinters that

Were rearranged in a formless blight

She whispers into microphones

Before masses gathered around her,

Elevating,

Pushing and pulling.
