.and it becomes these mysteries

that seemingly seduce us into

the absurd.

.daydream factory.

.one step at a time until i trip..

industrial : divine :: phallus : virgin

transient restraint

love now?

who am i now to love myself?

who now have i become to smile incessantly --

to see life as wonderous as it may be...

but yet i know & see myself falter

apologizing for being myself.

this unknown skin that i am in

is a decadent new dress.

a dress made just for me

to my liking & for my loving.

i was meant to don & step gently

into her awareness & dance.

oh heavenly dance [!]

dancing to the music flowing from me.

two-stepping and twirling to

the melody of me.

impulsive hesitation

new beginnings are always nice.

the alter ego's pipe dream
