Elegant Grace Of The Horse

Elegant Grace Of The Horse

He lies on vastness of the dream-framed world 
to ponder strangeness of the face he wears 
which everyone else clearly sees but him, 
and entertains vain hope to substitute 
some more beautiful face that he designs 
which reflects strange feelings he aches to hide. 

Though love seems more unearthly to the one 
who wants to keep their body separate 
from seething anguish of synthetic lust 
unreal in twisted dance of ecstasies, 
he stares in eyes of strangers on the street 
who hide wounded souls behind gentle smiles. 

With stammered transformation of regret 
he longs to dance with delicate tree nymph 
who glides on gossamer wings of pure joy 
from secretive excitement urging faith 
by sharing sacred eggs of honesty 
defined by slantwise paradigm of fate. 

Insistent kindness of concluding facts, 
entwined with fragments of unspoken thoughts, 
scatters vibrant words from predicaments 
more real than caricatures of great men 
that brave innocent boys must choose to wear 
when they hunt demons of assertive lust. 

Uncoupled dancers of innate concern 
throw strict assumptions at aggressive ghosts 
to extract self-assurance from the egg 
concealing gloomy source of fraught romance 
no fool would substitute for social honor 
when time must reassign our general role. 

Through Augustine force of male normalcy 
he leads great army to conquer the world 
from stoic pretension of social code 
defining how we play our gender role 
which angels construct from discarded texts 
based on hope-adjacent identity. 

Locked in complex dream world of bitter faith, 
he trots with elegant grace of the horse 
to disconvention state of ardency 
through structured process of his fantasy 
that links his body to the changeless Earth 
as grass softly flattened by human souls. 

Diving from stiff cliff in soft swirling sea, 
he transforms back to our base primal form 
to swim as fish with dragon-writhing fins, 
then rises reborn from womb of the world 
as graceful Venus with long flowing hair 
after breaking free from egg of desire.
