Sailing on Silver Seas

all my world is apple red
dripping amber
bleeding peach
painted by a brush of flame
candlelit
delirious

lightning flash!
thunder crash!
ocean waves wash over me!
illuminate the darkness
in lemon & tangerine
frosted fast
imperious

this drama never ends

between
the roses & the rushes
the fire & the smoke
a spangled grail
resplendent
ascendant
oceanic
with the taste of gold & opals

i am a raggedy doll
a puppet without strings
&
all my world is candy green
exploding amethyst
bursting sapphire

sailing on the silver seas
into candlelit nights
