Penumbra { The Aura }

Two Eyes fell

upon my flesh

somewhere between

sky and sod.

I blinked,

closed mine,

while time knelt in pause -

[..., ..., ...]

just like that;



I opened my eyes

to see two eyes

shadowing mine.




Two shadows fell upon me,

penumbras, they be,

crossing each other,

affront of each other;

an illusion of depth,

masqued behind

a shrouded concourse-



of abstract image,

strange presentations

of optical complex,

veiled by haunting contrast

in Kings gold and bible black,

silently watching

o'er Time and Space

like Knight Templars

a paradox of magnificence.
