My mind defies velocity,
yet overthrows friction,
my heart is steerless,
and my pulse becomes nitro,
when she walks like speed,
the tachometre of my eyes,
measure fluorescence,
the odometre of my soul,
detects golden joy,
and the speedometre
of my heart,
declares that she
has given me the franchise
for freedom
She is the only crystal
that breathes,
I make a toast to
her reign,
with the cherry wine
of her lips and kiss
them till redemption
is the fabric I wear
and the swagger of my heart
is the new designer ware
on the marketless market
of wisdom.
S.T.
