Wizards play

in hollow minds

groping with perceptions

of darkness and light

jelly bean shapes

sculpted wavy edges

perplex the seers

to anger

pondering complexities

of their plight

neon limelight

dances on the shore

of a hostile beach

rush away

from the waves

or become entangled

in the jealousy

of myriad untruths

race to the dunes

no shelter there

moon is full

tide's pull

fights your flight

race the sand crabs

hide there

in the foaming surf

when the Milky Way

is bright

ride the turtle's back

to safe haven

awash

in raining cosmic dust

a disguise

you'll wear

to bend the brims

of the Wizard's hats
