PEACE IN SIN

I thought I'd locate you
in the dark, lonely street
but I myself got lost

Mind's mazy prompts
shocked me into nakedness
I never perceived

The misleading sun
the unreal reflections
the dumb show

Dazzle my eyes
shades of terror in alleys
smell of treachery

At the crossroads
the selfish gene's tarots
of my random choices

In dim blue light
smiling breasts invite
autumn breeze

I chuckle to myself
hearing raps of inverse world
and peace in sin
