Butterfly

sorenbarrett

Sapphire dots on black velvet wings, a night sky afloat on invisible strings

A portal to Thanatos heaven opened in day, drifting dreams too soon flown away

Transfigured wings destined from birth, carry flittering scraps above worm's earth

Crawling caterpillars, from a chrysalis fly, painted whispers soar on summer's sky

Folded food of birds as broken words, and such is the end of butterfly herds
