“MYINTERLUDE”

I slip you between life pages
            & you sit a graceful (swan)
your utility replaceable, it is not gold
            your soul the lions of Daniel
that did not harm the angel. You
            starry like Salvador, Yin
Yang, Warrior Queen. You
            are life preserved forever –
photograph, poem 9 imperfect
            specks of God – eternal green. You
guard knowledge, like Sphinx, fly
            in wind, you cannot be contained.
Universes apart, your scent, my dream.
            Photograph. Poem. Mark.
