BEAUTY AND CHEMISTRY INTERCHANGED

_{Scattered directions
on the leaf of destiny—
I turn the corner,
quizzically.}

_{Dim dynamos, insufficient
to light my wayward steps
warm me
while I peel the curtains back
and write soliloquy.}

---

_{To beauty in another-same
familiar loved face.
Particular, peculiar, yea—
repugnant even—grace.}

_{To chemistry, crisp aspiration
towards amalgamed-die.
Dodecahedral-morphing thrown,
a gamble-loving eye.}

_{Rhythms ebb, sharp birdsong;
walk without moving,
sing without tongues.}

_{Directions erupt
in impossible vectors
where the quill pertains not.}

_{Climbing the cosmical ladder
where rung-languages
constrain not.}

_{To find the bellows,
breeze through the branches,
erratic majesty:
and I turn the page
with a curious glance}
