“Are you real Mona Lisa?”

Everywhere

As if you hung in the air

Before the light

Beckoning me forward and on

Softly

Like snowfall in summer

This image of you

Melts my sanity

Burns me

I go out in the buzzing heat

The aching rain

To return home alone again,

Wandering, lost in thoughts that fly

To your image, everywhere and nowhere,

Brown eyes too scared to look too deep, batting eyelids, that hair

My heart is in my mouth

Rolling from my tongue

I dont know what you expect

How long you’ll keep me in torment

But it’s always been

For sweet love and the goddess

Now you, too

For you

Any torment

For you

Me in bloom

The image of you

My priceless Mona Lisa,

You goddess in blue uniform

Blue moon with her hand between her thighs

It’s all a guess

(All in my head?)

A floating nexus

Which shapes my dreams at night

They say I’m crazy

Perhaps they’re right

But I’ll take the earth to the moon

I’ll become light

Around that image, a

Satellite
