Midas’ touch for Donkey Ears

Bulletproof flags nod along –
Where bearded ladies tug
on starry rungs like motes on light
Swaying the hearts of beautiful
men and women – call them beautiful!
Please, tell them they’re beautiful!

Belief lunges on pretty clothes
“It’s okay, one more day.”
Belief breathes in deciphered
applications of phones; sometimes
fed on – a luxe light
“Oh, how delicate it tastes.”

She would have sought to know
more, of a species so fine
But, her niche lies in ignorance
For her heart is imprinted by
a crystal disarray of anything but nothing
