Lusting Beauty . . .

Of Shadowy Images


There!
Clusters,splotches,
Grayish white pixels
From places unknown.
Collecting like dewdrops.



There!
Projected, deposited,
Upon my mind's eye
Shadows of figures
With fuzzy edges dissolving.


There!
I see them,
Each standing alone,
Like images I've known,
Similar yet different.


There!
In my mind,
Perhaps in yours,
Greeting similar images.
Each saying hello.


There!
Much like pictures
At an exhibition,
That brought Mussorgsky fame,
Known only by sound,
And somehow seen.


There!
Clusters,splotches,
Grayish white pixels
From places unknown.
Collected like dewdrops,
Evaporating, Gone!
