[ The Muse(s) ] INFJ

   
     
Rare blood type    
flowing through the arterial    
highways of Humankind's anatomy    
     
arriving at destinations of Creation    
feet wiped on Welcome Home mats    
blurring the black and white    
artificial lines drawn in sand    
between    
hard reality of physicality    
and    
soft holographic fantasy;      
     
in the currency of Symbols 
we deal      
     
---sewing buttons stitched    
with associative meaning    
     
subconscious needle eyes    
steadily hand threaded by Ariadne    
minus the benefit of thimbles;     
fingertips pricked on occasion    
     
---cracking loose bottle caps    
pouring contents contained within    
opaque bottles; we see through    
to glass half full or empty    
     
Perspective changes everything    
and nothing is what it is     
---at least, not      
without our say-so    
     
Wishing to just be ourselves    
seeking like-minded companionship    
in a crowded world consumed with    
surface appearances and secrets    
   
where Trust is    
a must have commodity    
for survival
