Poem 7/2/17

Deep in sacrilegious thought—
a mere mortal mingled
with the heavens;
captivated by a golden goddess
blinded by beauty’s baby blues.

What could be the apotheosis of love;
prevented by the fear of the fall

as the goddess floats
back to the world she came
amongst those more worthy than I—

vanished amongst the stars
where my prayers are sent

to see heaven's smile again.
