allure
a complex manifestation
of interest
embellished
by visions of self
transposed onto that
of another's suspected view
worn sore
from exhausted thought
near obsession untaxed
a game less point
so noted and marked
justification for
post humilitory action
hindsight will of course
one day soon
stand corrected
yet these seeds that grow and
transform into such remarkable
garden
as that of helpless attraction
are generously nurtured
into this blessed body of feeling
and its in that very said stasis
of transformation
that those who are actively searching
long for
and think they've finally found
(though too often are all too terribly
mistaken)
most miraculously intact
the magnificent company
of the so singularly sought after
soul mate............
