Phocension Despair

 Phocension Despair

the sand dust 

from the demolition of trees
resting undisturbed by the racing dream
a dance assured of rejection
never coveted

made into grounds

 sands of stands
spread like foreboding bones
seeking assurance of mind
lacking lust

un-stepped dance 

missing music
the urge surges forward
unheard whispers among the stands
before assurance of mind

disturbed by the racing dream
a dance assured
by the king of forests
that never touches the true prince

in pari passu
ignored expectation the unchastity
spread out as dust
with a sweep of a breeze

the mighty stands whispering
giving assurance of mind
breathing an idea
before giving it a dance
in phocension despair
