TOURMALINE MERGING


Have you seen

A lady dream,

Where wires tie her?

Ribbons bind her?


Tireless

She beams

Spectral light

Inner sight

Her worlds go deep


Nature weeps

Stars in her veins


When all is drained

She breaks the reins

And flies to soar

Shimmering rain

Of tourmaline flame

In hues

No human

Can yet name
