Just like mercury
fading endlessly
Translucent as air
Clear and objective in her thoughts
she’ll answer each question
to graze her ear
Precision like a knife, sharp
and clear as glass
She is a victim of her own responses
Memorizing her silhouette in glances
and unifying each of her dimensions
two of which I’ve dwelled in
The tangerine of her dawn
brisk, blinding, and unforgiving
when she rises
The lavender of her dusk
as gentle and subtle as the hand of
God laid upon you
My dynamic
as black and white as grey can be
and perfectly entwined in me
Crazy as can be
but she’s alright with me
