My eyes see butterfly wings
Fluttering haloes on the boundaries
Between dark and light,
Sear the tears in space
Bleed hard horizons, bodies, oblivion.
But the leaves have returned
As they fall.
Kalidiescopes cascade across landscapes
Patterns of bark as
Treasure maps,
Ancient medicine.
Rifts and furrows etched as life lines into
The palms of our hands.
The rise and fall of the sea
As she whispers to the land.
The ability for eye contact
Kissing lashes, recognition
Feelings unspoken, see into souls.
Other senses heightened
Electric touch, underearth odors
Crickets calling.
Cry at the miracle of shattered illusion.
When three dimensions return to the world
Step into the painting.
The knight of faith, only upon renouncing
Returns to find he is already in
The kingdom of heaven.
