Not Averse
I live! Un-ownable, not made: revealed.
Confused and worn, I don’t know if I’m here.
My form: beauty induced in smears of paint.
Yet in this well-formed image, I’m confirmed.
Your mind, your hands! You stroked me into light…
Eternal concept, crystalline, unknown…
But I can’t reach or feel your fragile form.
What kind of fool deceives himself like this?
