Iridescent

A reflection of self

By DanZaiPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

A palette of personality,

A buffet for the eyes to taste,

The spectrum of my existence,

Intelligently interlaced.

A window to my soul,

A doorway for my mind,

With depth of unknown space,

Only the curious will find.

The refraction of light’s essence,

Expanded into form,

I stand proud as Iridescence,

Rainbow uniform.

Using eccentric as my metric,

To recognise the disguise,

Light’s expression in confession ,

These real eyes;

Realise.

A world guarded in suppression,

Of Universal truth behind lies.

Beyond the illusion of difference,

Suspending our belief,

A brightness is contained,

Within a human sheath.

These layers fall like rain,

Now as the veil is lifted.

A new generation of change,

The youth, to us, have gifted.

To lead by example,

And see the young follow suit,

Of a new system of teaching,

Learning strongly in pursuit.

Unity is forged and connection unbroken,

Love is spread like legend,

Warriors within awoken.

A wave of nacreous lustre,

Engulfed by my inner youngster,

Pervades my demonstration,

As an expression of inspiration.

From painted flames a dancing,

With crimson blaze entrancing.

A heat felt softly on the skin,

As sparks ignite deep within.

In an infinite display of creative passion,

To light humanity’s everlasting compassion.

And as I breathe the vibrant air,

See Iris traverse the rainbow stair,

To bring forth a higher knowing,

With cones in fovea of receiving,

Imagination forever growing.

A thirst for an attainment,

Of a state that’s ever flowing ,

Elimination of restrain and,

A creative release ongoing.

Poured into chromatic movement,

Translated through physical form,

A vivid filter of omnipotence,

Divine and ubiquitous transform.

Ongoing in my eternal exploration,

Truly knowing oneself,

Through internal creation.

As a fractal of infinity,

Earth origin; Australia,

Interpretation of my being,

Is nothing short of qualia.
