FAUX ETERNITY
D2 WOMBWELL EKPHRASTIC CHALLENGE

I seek to make

a journey of a kind,

into the buddha face.

As if soft eyes hold,

answers to hope.

 

A lustre that says

I do not sleep,

but time my breath

my circadian dreams,

to the rhythm of stars.

 

We are all travellers

within the enigma

of a conscious mind. 

 

Do you know to hope,

see what I see?

Do you cleave green seas?

 

I hold my life entire 

in fragments of 

long forgotten song.

My visage serene, or 

maybe too tired to frown.

 

Step away now, or feel

my chameleon breath

enter your eyes and

stir the fronds

of a faux eternity.
