Illuminated Orchid

[Daruko]

I move expeditiously forward,
belligerent toward sustained contention.
Self-sustained predisposition;
a quandary perhaps.

Shall I question retrogression?
No time for that! 
The Beast cometh.

This is it. 
My blood coagulates.
Olfactory emotions react
to the putrid smell of regret.

Must I must? 
Struggle or capitulate?
Abscond!  Absquatulate!

Ah! Sweet wisteria.
A confidant emerges.
As I sway, I spot the fray;
The Beast eyes me ostensibly.

I must not relent,
but then...
Swift descent.
Disquieting pleasure.

A skid, a slump,
and the final bump,
Respiration ceases.
But what is this?
A sweet aroma?
A magnificent orchestration of the senses.
The orchid glimmers.

davedim, cram, and payne: you r all criticizing the verbiage yes?

i realized it was verbose and perhaps a bit gaudy, but it felt like i evoked the correct imagery for the concept

it's basically a personal interpretation of an old zen koan

[Triple Zero]

it's depth and clearness reminds me of a Frysian lake.
