I AM the flower of your perfection

this Word is my fruit

born from the heart of my dying beauty,
petals withered and torn free

my pen oozes rich nectar onto the page

but,
your ears can not know me,
let me spell it on your tongue!

“things are not what they seem”

you taste juice, sweet and intoxicating,
but I am not fruit, nor seed, nor flower!

I AM the reflection of your power
to see, to sense, to experience
the infinite twists of a deeply cognitive,
purely
human
bliss
