Rebirth ( the beauty)

We take this
vile, vulgar
temporal existence
and somehow make it
beautiful

we make
bodily fluids
into summer rain
sloppy wet kisses
into vintage wine
pressure & pain
into screams
of passion

and as time’s illusion
bends and breaks
us all
into a million little pieces

with each stroke
i serenade the universe
in praise
of this gift
