dazzle

by Mainon A Schwartz

a stunning moment of
sad but glorious
epiphany
like so many
deep purple, mournful
fireworks
exploding

and gold stars falling


and I have offered you
nothing more
than a tearful
ultimatum
like so many
stars colliding
burning

and holes in our atmosphere

speak of the sorrows
and emptiness
nothing more profound than
hope deferred

and a sickened heart.

There's just something about this poem I really enjoy. The way it reads perhaps? "deep purple, mournful" - Very nice.
