I AM THE AMBER LOTUS WHO HAS THRICE BLOOMED IN THE SUN.
I AM THE AMBER LOTUS
THRICE-BLOOMED IN THE SUN
(FIRST 2 TEACH THE BEETLE POLLINATION CAN BE FUN)
(THEN 2 SHOW THE CHESTNUTS THAT THE SHOW HAD JUST BEGUN)
(LAST 2 TELL THE MOON OUR FEUD IS OVER & I WON)
MY HEART IS SLICK FROM SUMMER RAIN THAT FALLS WITH SANGUINE THUDS
MY VENULES COURSE WITH BRITTLE QUARTZ THAT FRACTURES IN MY BLOOD
MY LIPS ARE LIMESTONE RIVERBANKS WHICH SEASONALLY FLOOD
IN THE STREAMBED SPIT-SHINED KUNZITE POLISHED IN THE MUD
I UNDERSTAND THE POROUS PRAIRIE SLICK BENEATH MY TONGUE IN MAY
I RECOGNIZE THE CROWDED WHISPERS URGING ME 2 SIT & STAY
I UNDERSTAND I GET A SAY
THEY RECOGNIZE I GET MY WAY
I UNDERSTAND THE GRANITE’S PLAYFUL SHIMMER ON A ROSY DAY
THE ORIOLES ADORE THE RIPPLED TEXTURE OF MY RIND
MY AMBROSIAL PRESENCE SEEMS 2 SUBJUGATE THE MIND
MY SOUL GREW ON A TREE WHERE EVERY BRANCH WAS INTERTWINED
MY LOVE OUTSTRIPS THE NECTAR OF EACH GARDEN MYTH COMBINED
MY WORDS FLUORESCE LIKE CORAL IN THE DARKEST DEPTHS OF HEARTACHE
I DISREGARD THE TOXINS OF ANEMONES & SEA SNAKES
THE SIREN SINGS OF GIVE & TAKE
SAILORS FIGHT 2 STAY AWAKE
MY MYSTERY ATTRACTS PEARL DIVERS YEARNING 4 MISTAKES 2 MAKE
SPEAK THIS IN THE MORNING
WITH UR MIND ON ANY1:
I AM THE AMBER LOTUS
WHO HAS THRICE BLOOMED IN THE SUN ■
