Serpents linger

Corporating talents

To behave

And it keeps me

In surrounding areas

Of perception

That tackles a defying

Perpendicular space

I haven’t found you yet

Giving you an empty

Shell

And ghostly features

That say it’s overwhelming

And make tears bleed

I know travesty

You know love

And joining this

Unity

Can heal or destroy

Maybe captivate us

Into learning

Breaking and molding

Clay lays at our feet

Steel wraps at my waist

Covering my breast

Paper at your fingertips

Stone beats in your chest

Water trailing our skin

Material blasting in peace
