A Meditation on Origin and Choice

Or ars too loud for your celestial velleities,
ting zones of emptiness uncanny to your imperious
hand?
Did you admit ttles of tance,
And er
Or vulgar as a marathon dance?
Did you keep camping all through chaos
Comparing colors of infinity to neon lights?
Forever
Spurning t of affinity and rose, t of sunset, clarity,
Avoiding rainbo desperate clas tars?

Of universe, tary comic quandary.

top-secret density relating Space to time.
Did once your ling senses turn
to paradise t you had robbed and spurned?
Did you once ime weep?
As earturn again defaulting eyes to paradise,
Defaulting eyes, turn once again
itiment of further bliss
Before you s and final kiss.
