Smitten, a star craves
To flee the square of Pegasus
Desiring the proximity of moon
Saboteur of my dream rests.
Apathetic moon glides furtively
Grooving to the night’s immortal songs
Desire to wrap myself around you
Sans guilt and elucidation
Impulse finds a motive to sustain
Raking the mound of mangled prose
Groping the crutch of excuse
A statement suffers in silence
Rebel the sleep of compulsion
Unleash your lies, moisten my eyes
Ravage my heart, bestow me death
Consecrate a poet’s dream
Redeem the object of thought
Heal me off the poetic convulsion
Admonish the venomous night
Liberate my dissolved dreams
I am committed to this sin
