The Silent Spectacle
/Garnering much attention,
In the filtered waves of motion,
The blind curse shall prevail,
For aeons, the night never invited
The ordinary, caught among
The less privileged, the latter
Assuming to be knighted in the night,
Only to have found a space, a speck
In the nonexistent existence,
Being ordinary led the preface
To smile, with a lead taking
The awesomeness, the wait
To be witnessed and witnessing
The grandeur hallowed deep
Into the crevices, the twilight
Opus shivered for the canvas
To paint a shadow, not to be viewed
But to be observed in the firmament,
The observant is imbued in delight
Forever, to be caressed and revered
As an astute follower of the legion,
The might stayed aloof, to be absorbed
In the canvas, the least observant
Slumbered into the doldrums, sighting
Many excuses for being away
From the spectacle, pleading forgiveness
For yet another lapse, the smile had
A long pause, evincing to have found
The truth, the silence stayed a little
Longer, the thunders struck without excuse,
The venerable shadowed in invisible
Layers, only to be visible to the observant.
The smiles were exchanged, the thoughts
Eclipsed the joy of the invincible...
