A Corpuscle Of Energy Poem by Mihaela Pirjol

Your three-dimensional visage,
morphed from
the iridescent rainbow of sun-light,
is floating above the turquoise sea-water…

diffused from
the refraction of my sunny eye-lashes
of my peripheral vision;
fluttering in the ionic sea-wind: —

the apparition of my imagination,
conceived by the acerbic desire to see you…!

emerging imposingly from pelagic depths,
with tidal spume at your feet;
your figure is elongated by a sun-ray, —
rising towards the sky…

tall, ample torso, supple in the sunshine,
with long, golden hair, intermittently
sparkling; —as a divine chimera of Christ!

I close my eyes, and the darkness
swallows your brilliance—exploding
in a multitude of solar stars
upon the abysmal interior infinity…

retracted from the refraction of light,
your corporeal contour transforms,
and progressively fades into the firmament:

a minuscule nucleus of energy, a cell;
a corpuscle of energy—
like an aura around the sun…
