A child sprays a whisper
Lip popping effervescence
A beautiful bubble of starlight
Glittering toxins with the sun rays
A hiss and the dream, in evanescence,
can only, into otherworld
fade – so iridescent
As the last air pocket exhales
And flickers out of sight
So silvery, the reflective song
Strikes bolts of moisture across our sky
So dashes, the wispy painting
is escaping truth, monopoly mystery
It is mocking how we live or die
It glimmers, flowing gracefully
Misty beams vaguely lie
Gasping fire rain of night
The deified wonders are silent
to soft whispers, songs lilting, hymns
They drip diamonds and crystalline dreams
on round, pallid upturned faces
Gone awry in silver hoops and rims
Beauty captured canvas
(casket) – Life firmly trimmed
But the otherworld is drifting
Deep within absence of light
