Raisins on the radar
Blips up in the sky
Momentary fragments
Dissecting the nebula
Into quadrants of infinity
Paradoxical parodies
Of timeless interventions
Parading down the highway
Toward the Main Street
Of all life
Opening credenzas
Containing empty virtues
Of Delft and Meissen statues
With layers of brocade adornment
Pretensions held up to the light
Fascinating sorrows
Measuring despair
With candles unextinguished
A world in disrepair
A bastion of hollows
Carved in granite heights
A tempest once devoured
Retains the kernel within
To reignite with a teardrop
A Phoenix full in flight
