Ok guys... Another poem... I hope you guys like it.

It's for an art assignment where we had to write a poem based on a sculpture.

The work I based my poem on is called Fireflies On Water by Yayoi Kusama (I'm telling you this because it's really just that awesome). Basically, imagine this... It's a room, and when you walk in, the only source of light is fairy lights which are hanging from the ceiling. The walls and roof are just a sheet of mirror and the floor is a pool of water (you stand on a small platform). And just imagine the Christmas lights being reflected for infinity. Awesome, huh?

Anyways, votes and comments would be greatly appreciated

Dance

Girl

Twirl in this

Ethereal reality

Spider ink

Water

Beneath your alabaster feet

Fireflies amassing the periphery

Oh darling you are not

Desolate

Twirl with this esoteric world

You are one within yourself

Amaranthine walls

Embracing such

Eternity of the universe

Ever so perpetual, mon paramour

Dance

Child

Alone are you not

Cavort with reflections of yourself

Technicoloured fireflies

Disseminate amidst

This inky calignosity

Fly, rainbow ones

Eternity

And all betwixt the beyond

Reflected in halcyon calm

Infinite for never evanescent mirrors

Gelid glass

Ice to touch

Ameliorate responsibilities of

Prior

Thus splash

Lucid droplets of

Spidering ice water

Reflected in myriad of the universe

Such tenebrosity of

This room

Fireflies from christmas lights

Suspended from the ceiling

The thrum of your heartbeat

Lambent rhapsody

Of

Curio and necromancy

Precipitation

Of heated breaths upon

Mirrored glass

Augmented by proximity

Imprint your fleeting mark

Upon the attenuating fog

Mirrored to infinitude

Watch it fade
