And I dreamed you were painting me
dreaming of painting you
watching yourself spin fire into a woman
made of orchid wine and nylon roses.
Look at how your lips re-shape with song,
and joy, the aesthetics of my desire.
The smoky sweetness of your spirit
curled up from the mink thatch
of your heat and splattered the canvas
of love's untamed genius.
I drew you deep inside every cell––
exhaled tenderly the sacred kiss of us.
See the way our souls vibrate bright heavens
shooting naked through our hearts.
In a bombed-out Moroccan market
your eyes laughed the riddles
and your tongue wept the parables
that cradle this planet’s lonely faith.
Almost: I learned something about divine design.
About the warm holiness that makes it credible.
Listen to how we sigh soaked in colors of bliss.
As I slid and burned skin with you
through reflections of fantasies
stepping boldly into flesh––
I nearly learned something about love.
About the way it dreams of us,
dreaming lives and worlds for each other.

In an interplanetary empire of emotions, visions and dreams, science and art, in a Jurisdiction called HELICON, – abode of many Holy-Royals, – Venus met Cupid to attend the recital of "Delightful Aesthetics of Divine Dreamers" at ERATO’s Palace... I could see Euterpia preparing her Orchestra to accompany the recital and then follow it with a celestial concert... PLEASE, allow me to complete this in another OCCASION... I just heard: “ALL RISE FOR THE ENTERING OF PHOEBUS!”
I can’t comment on the recital, because I was told that RELEASE OF NEWS from HELICON was an exclusive privilege of Journalist-Poets, but I can tell You that I read the poem, "DELIGHTFUL AESTHETICS OF DIVINE DREAMERS", and am pleased with its enchanting magical symbolism, poetic singing voice and lexicon.
I am grateful to the Ambassador of Helicon in Savannah, His Sublime Grace Poet Aberjhani – for the releasing of "Delightful Aesthetics of Divine Dreamers".
