September Tuesday

A Poem by eglantine

Today,

         I am radiating lightning.

My heart is a battery,
pumping high voltage

and my eyes spark white.

I am the electric glass
dragon and I breathe out
flames influenced by the moon;

fiber-optic speech
and when I smile,
you can see the air
around me crackle
and smoke.

I saw a beautiful person smoking a waterpipe of life's beauty... filtered with a glimpse of mystery. Excellent work.
