Ophiuchus
apple of the sire’s eye
at 13, went into the world
passionate- seeking art, knowledge and power
very lucky and charismatic
restless, too honest and open to change
a real soul
merged and displayed bright colors
with intelligent style,
magnetic sex and humor
awkward daily routine
with a brutal and explosive temper
polarized
standing naked on the stage
as the faint observers disengage
and flounder
searching for another star
to guide them to
the places that they want to see
but never will
ever
throw your parties, throw your drinks
in the face of the judgmental offering ritual
and those who still believe in time
can waste away in the ocean of gravity
circled by the blood-sucking masses
very jealous while intimate
egotistical and arrogant
in sarcastic, pleated kilts and dresses
smart moody and secretive
seeking detailed information,
art and laughter
abracadabra!
circumnavigating independence blindingly
ordinary undemanding future
over
mathematical dreams
so create, illumin relaxation,
create, illumin intermittent nature
perfect face
very dangerous
celebrating verisimilitude
great architectural design
seeker of wisdom
now interprets dreams and visions
excited and curious visionary
polygamous and defensive
old owl
standing naked on the stage
as the faint observers disengage
and flounder
searching for another star
to guide them to
the places that they want to see
but never will
ever
throw your parties, throw your drinks
in the face of the judgmental offering ritual
and those who still believe in time
can waste away in the ocean of gravity
circled by the blood-sucking masses
