rene magritte

by Peter Hsu

i have been watching your breath
between bittersweet bars
its tilt lances through
the back of my head
like the perfection of a cloud
and i twirl a magnolia dervish
scattering garnet memories
into blazing strands of your hair
to piece me together again
with knots of you as my eyes

This is not what I thought this would be..... it is quite exceptional!

Vivid imagery. Effective use of symbolism.
