Leonardo DaVinci

an untimely genius lost within scientific valuation
conjuring visions through eternity mastering how to fly.
mathematical equations produce functions of the body
attainments no-one dared to fathom but knowledge of everything
that was his only life-long dream.

paupers proclaimed he was a dreamer, a non-believer,
he was never a proper hero but no one can disavow
mystery was a must as he disengaged the portals
to find secrets unimagined, victorious solving riddles of enigma
drowning in the smile of his Mona Lisa.

forging death for a conflagration he absolutely loathed
set in pace by the wisdom of pi not of religion.
the spectrum of nature and the contours of anatomy he paints,
but yet mesmerized by his dark haired beauty, her smile,
tell me what lies behind her flowing grace?...
