Above all else

Above all else, we must find within us an undimmable light,
blurred against the fantasy of portraying the unbreakable facade.

All images lapping against you now, burning into a bright night,
the body that stands before you, the house you are sitting in.

The rubble starting to call from its rear view mirror,
pleading you gently, saviour this moment in time.

Your whole life a slow cremation, chiming from the near future birdsong.
The ingredients to making the delicate vastly untouchable.

To be so immovable in your essence, yet dance beneath the bridges of a divine octave,
setting out to see for yourself what Earth had to offer, a thick veil agreed.

Quickly, build the bridge to the unseen whilst you’re still here.
With care, strip down the lingerie of forgetting. 

Taste the nectar of seduction, whispering you deep into the mouth of never returning.
