Alex Izenberg - Pareidolia

Stillborn shrines of oblivion
Stand central and remote
Crystallized echoes of solitude
Vanished from a still river

Magnolias all in a row
I dreamt a stirring rhapsody
Reading the book of changes
& reflecting from my condition

The knowledge of god in the cloud of unknowing
Masquerading lines to make for a reply

Yesterday is tomorrow
As I falter unto waking youth
The mystic of her cadence
Had moved the blue ridge mountains

Love in the time of Rhiannon
I’ll build a castle with a view
Burning clouds of Venus
Above the temple of a kept woman

Drowned when the light blossomed to the dream
Crimson majesties unfading for the queen

The unknown soldier a child of god
Had tied me to a tune of the boulevard
Drawn beneath the tides we sailed
Tethered to the lions share

Salvation had begun with opposed direction
Musing over dreams that daylight could not reveal
