Scent Descent

Call it the great mistake
enlightenment materiality
vision to missive
missive to action
action to possession
possession to compounding.

Yea, verily sciencias 
green experimentation
for gold certitude
imagination so abused
by its holders
its construction crews.

Desire may be hold
one self in throes 
but to wriggle
and see
and hear
is to feel
deconstructed flowers.

Unpicked roses 
are a thousand loves
unseen petunias 
sailed no warships 
unsmelled lavender
is a dream whose awakening
need not memory store.
