| a fallen rainbow

themolly
| yesterday it came to us driving down my street | 1 |
it crystallized before our eyes like pulled-sugar candy | 2 |
as we evaded the sadness pouring down from some great eye | 3 |
ra and i were struck with wide-mouthed hesitancy | 4 |
| |
yesterday a baby rainbow fell into the field across the street | 5 |
we'd never seen one that close up before | 6 |
it matieralized before our eyes like a swarm of bees | 7 |
with pixalated twitching and hissing | 8 |
| |
yesterday it went still while we were still flitting | 9 |
on the concrete porch with barefeet | 10 |
we paced just long enough to watch it leave | 11 |
it vaporized before our eyes like awakening mid-dream | 12 |

Egyptian mysticism....got my lunchtime research cut out for me! I want to like all the poems so my mission is to figure this out.

i love to collect strange Egyptianesque items. i've got a strange facination with the culture. it started when i began to look into things like Merkabic breathing, sex magic, and the tantra.
