the tempest

i almost forgot how it felt when we kissed
what a brilliant thing
it's been so long
since nirvana was reached 
departed birds sing for forgiveness
a song which finds its way to the depths of hell
the ravenous dogs surrender their kill
to me
but 
it's just not
the same
arrogance demands the floor 
humbleness waits outside
entranced by a haze of humidity
all creatures look the same
shadows
lost
against the mist
searching for that one solid embodiment
that tangible suffix that announces my departure from your light
what could be knowledge that isn't already wisdom
alas 
there is always more to digest
multiple partners
find the right combination
lock your irreverence away
gather
for me
one last time
invoke a heavenly light show for all non believers
it is possible to be adjacent to breadth 
my recollection holds beauty
even when you were ugly
i still rejoiced in the beauty
admittedly
i now know
i was experiencing me again
when i opened my eyes
analytical chauvinism became nothing more than a hallucinogenic nostalgia 
believable patronage became the norm
seduction was simple sport to keep my skill set at a certain stasis 
one more like you and there would be no more defense 
i stood in a field during a lightening feeding frenzy for a different perspective 
a mind will harness such volumes of memories
vaults within vaults of timeless propaganda
remember
if i go home first
you were
