the obsidian road

how the rains have made you lovely
you, my magnificent obsidian road.
as i tread upon your smooth black skin

(careful not to disturb you)
(careful not to harm you)

and slowly fall enchanted once again
captivated by your deep, dark beauty
draped in the heaven's cool silver
bejeweled with the tears of angels
shimmering in the diffused light of day.

Eloquent in all its subtleties.
Mesmerized by the tone of its words.
Shining amidst the coldest valleys.
And wandering in urban fjords.

Thank you sir.
