The Dance of The Barter

Vowed ambivalence

Perhaps a burning oracle with pledges of assurance


Forged in dreams of unyielding warriors

trapped in a slow dance with hopes shadow


For here hearts ache of anguished repentance

Even sorrow has its season


Yet the Bluebird sings songs of aspiration and renewal

Every breath humming sounds of fortune

Every heart beating the pulse of exchange


A desire for stability amongst simultaneous agility


This symphony of vignettes echos through the quiet surrender of jubilation


Haunted recollections fabricated to compensate for unstable odyssey


Persevere I plead for this is no place to concede

Yet roads are worn thin almost obsolete

bearing illusion and leaving certitude


For we ventured here judiciously and the merciless suns bears no illusion

There lies no cause for masquerades or fate stricken perversity

Transformation is omnipresent and surrender remains forbidden


The ache of uncertainty metamorphosed into the accentuation of palpable control

For you are the architect of order and ambition

For you are the divine artisan permitting light in a paradox of darkness


The essence of our profound sanctuary must not be misconstrued

Freedom emerges from surrender for which converts fear into authenticity


Within this delicate season of urban vitality

Remain untamed and accept all forms of duality
