Fur Elise
Für Elise
walking through the hidden realm of
my heart,
whistling close by me, a poisoned
dart,
burning lightning in a pearly orb,
the essence of my agony you
absorb,
echoes of a dog's anguished howl,
the opening eyes of a new-born
foal,
ruby tears from the eyes of an
innocent child,
a Spanish bull fight gone wild,
fiery chimera in a hailstone blizzard,
a multilingual emerald, flying-lizard,
purple mountain majestic mistletoe
kiss,
a rare sorrowful bliss,
a distant ringing of mournful bells,
walking along a rocky beach
collecting empty shells,
carousel of blood-hounds, running
on fire,
my only desire; to hear this
unearthly ire,
wretched arlequin, juggling the last
string of sanity,
this truly isn't a show of
subconscious vanity,
reaping emotions at such surprising
speeds,
along with bitter memories of
horrendous deeds,
diving into a sun-warmed tropical
reef,
floating with fire coral far beneath,
a lilytrotter on candy-sweet waters,
the irreplaceable smile of a
cherished daughter,
a blue fish dancing on a ghastly
moon,
corruption swept away by a gilded
monsoon,
a flurry in a race-horse chase,
no thoughts left to chastise,
shrewd smell of ancient tree-spice,
lingers in the unreachable corners
of paradise,
when the red and golden banners
are hung,
a far-off nightingale's song is sung,
the cresent moon, white-light
projector,
an involuntary earth-life protector,
darling Ludwig, you sly minx,
for you have put my uncontrollable
will under a jinx,
I'm nude, my true colours on
display,
until it comes my time to decay,
Elise trapped thee heart in Limbo,
full of shadowed stars and
powdered moonshine,
in a fairytale land divine,
treacherous Elise, make a speech,
of words no Poet can breech,
to thy trespasser, rowing,
in forbidden waters of longing
melody.
175 seconds of unabridged art in
blood...
