A disquiet head
bows into darkness
heavy lids are comatose
a head is cradled
the eye then peeps open
focusing on nothing in particular
yet something quite particular
leads to another realm
the form leads to an ellipses
but of sight
robbing vision of precision
and visual delight
the scene is that of nothing but haze
and on the edges
tiny dancing blobs
like rainbow doppelgangers
forming words
like melody smudged together
increasing and decreasing in size
as the body moves like a cradle
till the haze in the mind
brews in the eyes
brewing up a flow
and heat on the cheeks
few are observant
most do not notice
this new-born world
which was forever there
the iridescence quickly forgotten
the colors make no memory
the portal left open
waiting like the sea
like eternity
fortuitously a bug
dominating the peripheral sight
could pass the line of vision
like a blot of waltzing red
blown up in size
too big for tired eyes
a blot of indolent pace
dancing away from sight.
