Rattle

 
I shine brightly for you

Peacock fanned out in a colorful chromatic splash

No one told me

That I was a chameleon



Eyes passing by without a second thought

Even though our consciousness

Is close enough to embrace with intimacy


Why do I want to touch you?

It is clear I exist ethereally

My substance

Smoke

As your hand cuts my torso in half without any resistance


I want you in my circle so passionately

Simply to share life

Though I know not to press any buttons

So you drift away slowly

Not with a bang

Rather in a rolling chain of a thousand

Wistful drops of water

Dripping with intent to

Torture
