Scott Thomas Outlar- A Poem

Illusive Abstractions

  

You perfect angel –

with your wings fluttering

in violent metamorphosis,

urging ever onward

toward the next stage of evolution.

You pristine paradise –

with your heart of diamonds

crushing all the clay and coal,

reaching for higher ground

where a flag can be raised

to the opposite pole of life’s eternal sorrow.

You magnificent mistress of chaos –

with your whimsical wiles

and your borderline personality revelations

that cater only to the virtuous

aspects of a heaven on earth destination.

You greater glory –

with your wax sun

melting on the perfect path

where our love is paved in gold

but can never be shared

lest it disintegrate into oblivion.

You creature of the cosmos –

with your universal appeal

that flutters beyond the spaces

of simple sexuality and materialism,

floating into fluffy clouds

that reverberate with a lack of inhibition.

You Goddess –

You Queen –

You Pagan of Light –

You dream –

Scott Thomas Outlar survived both the fire and the flood - now he dances in celebration while awaiting the next round of chaos to commence. Otherwise, he lives a relatively simple life, reading, researching, taking walks, gazing at stars, laughing at life's existential nature, fluxing and flowing with the Tao River, and writing prose-fusion poetry dedicated to the Phoenix Generation.
