Rime of the Rainbow Dancer

Slipped right through

Poised fingertips

The phantasmal

Covered in millions of

of beaming light

leap and

Shine down

I swirl

Becoming tangled in the

Spectral turnabouts

Thoughtlessly rolling

Tucking my head

bursting out the cloudy door

─── ⋆⋅🌈⋅⋆ ──

I can see through the rainbow

Shimmering on the surface of my tears

To the glistening land

miraculously contained within

─── ⋆⋅🌈⋅⋆ ──

There has never been a way

To dive

Through and live

In the perfection wrung from

My subconscious being

─── ⋆⋅🌈⋅⋆ ──

Even collecting the torrential flow

Siphoning each drop away

Defending their salty volume from

The ravages of evaporation

Could never b r e a k the barrier

Bestowing upon me the power of

The Rainbow Dancer

I have to slice the surface tension

Take the

That’s the answer

─── ⋆⋅🌈⋅⋆ ──

As I spin and

Lift myself

Off the very ground with love

I see the tears and fear below

Light reflects in plasmic rays

Ricocheting, piercing the silvery

Shapely outer layer, forcing it to burst

Splashing rainbow reality

on the blank white canvas

boxing me in
