i am apple and
serpent,
duality incarnate,
tempting you with myself, yes?
take the knowledge i bring
and it will obliterate your pretty garden.
refuse it and perish in ignorance.
the hallowed ground of your innocence
lies ravaged by death's existence,
plundered by this holy war.
i do not feel sorry
for the damage i have done.
do you?
I tripped over a
glitch in reality
but when I looked
nothing was there.
You are my
indulgent poem,
written in visions beyond language,
signed in blood
best read by braille
in the season of candles.
The clock tower
in shadow land
ticks on centuries and human memories,
running its hands over history
to taste the texture
of time's dark etchings
on the fallen headstones of reality.
In October
the clock always stops,
and so it is ever autumn here
inside the night that never ends.
Everything happens at once
yet not ever or at all
for this is who we created you
to create us to be
and how we have made our separate reality
to exist eternally
at the crossroads
of perception and abyss.
I am made of apple
cider winters
and children I never was.
Broomsticks and pumpkins define me
but do not confine me.
Harlequin tears paint my eyes,
yet this is the pigment alone,
not the reason I weep.
In between all these things is my cohesion.
It is made of
poetry
yet it is not the poems.
It is woven of Stygian memories,
yet there is no single recollection
greater than all the others,
all just faded pictures
in an album of beautiful illusions.
I am made of snowflakes and stardust,
moments stolen from the Nothing.
Sometimes if you look close enough
you can see them glittering
in the black silhouette doorway
cast in the likeness of immortal me.
Only then will you know who I am.
I am the heart
of you
but you are the beat.
I am the soul of you
yet you are I-Am.
I am feather and wing,
you are the will to fly.
Duality seals our destiny.
I am the mirror,
empty without you.
I am the words,
you are the poem.
If you do not write it,
there is only silence
in eternity.
