Meta-Morphing Poem by Alexandre Nodopaka

Meta-Morphing



Under my gaze
Your stanzas writhe in
The steaming hot weather.

But it's between the lines
Like a Sahara mirage
Where true meaning resides.

And if your poem
Doesn't stir the sands
It is kissing a Muse of silica

Until I whip a quill
And dip it in the inkwell
Of the firmament

And daub secreting love
Feather to cloud
Cloud to feather

Revamping each
Into a marble butterfly
Or myself into a falcon
