Caverns of the Heart

Tristan Robert Lange

Emotions are
A barren wilderness,
A blistering sore,
A festering, oozing
Puss pocket of impropriety;
They are wiry nerves
That wind their way
Through our very core.
Emotions are an oasis
In a desert’s bloom,
A floral arrangement
Fantasy
Filled with the fury
Of a volatile volcano
Erupting into
The cavernous
Cockles of the heart.
Emotions are
A shimmering sea
Of rolling waves
Swelling and surging
As the tempestuous tempers
Torture
The inner sensibilities
That cry out through
Wet and wild eyes—
The saline surprise—
Of emotions.
