Untitled

Red tongue swallows a spark
hide and reveal
not a lark
But real.
A curtain, or the deep red void?
A dive into your reflection
crimson velvet stranglehold
on your attention.
Not why did they do that
(To show)
but how did they do that
(You’ll never know).
Bring mystery to light
Sit in awe at its presence
Know it’s not for human sight
Accept and call on transcendence.
Do you still see a star?
Knowing not that it burns
or trust in its life from afar
and remember to it you will return.
Lift the shimmering veil
and find more under
an infinite tale
of human wonder.
