Pen Strokes

Moonlight lifts the veil
Creeping past the shades and hue
Silhouette cast on my canvas
Awaiting Attention
Craving Connection
Observing this expressive culmination of culture
One sees no flaw...
Free of blemish, imperfection, impurity...
As if sculpted by the hands of divinity
This mosaic is counterpoint to the trinity
Harmonious in cadence and chemistry
Physically...A manifestation of melody...
Yet still awaiting finality.

The canvas calls...
"Finish me...Finish me..."

So I plunge into the depths of my work
Stroke after Stroke
Foregoing the need to surface
There is no gasping
No emerging for air
Quite contraire...
Instead the trepidation withers
Anxieties vanquished
As shudders turn to shivers
And shivers gain in pace
Forming quakes...my pen creates...
And recreates---

Inaudible symphonies
Conducted in two-four, three-four
More...More time...
Utilizing that universal signature
Stroke after Stroke
The inner Euphantus is summoned
Drawing upon recollection of ancestry
These pen strokes traced the curvatures of history
Her story was found within the bounds of this passage as well
Defined and noted as the premise supreme
Devoting depictions to this amorous Odyssey
While invoking wooden horses of fabled lore
I too chose to strike in the night...
Stroke after Stroke
Until the walls of great Troy were sieged
Allowing my Helen to experience sweet release...

Finally...Finality...
