Ghoulish Butterflying Dream
As if a ghoul accompanied me
For a butterflying journey
Jaded skies merging
With empty earth
My prudish kindness
A simplified pendant
Of semi-precious stones
Teething uncertainties
On the edge of soft cushion
A brim of fantasies
Degenerating through dampness
Of spirit and soul
Am I complete, whole?
Or yet to sink to bottom
And rise
