Atlantis In Technicolor

from Barbed​-​Wire Cage by Natasha Helen Crudden

lyrics

Reality
Vanity
Banality
If you can turn it to water, I can turn it to wine.
Down the rabbit-hole and through the looking-glass
I emerge into existence-
a cheat of optics.

Dependency? Impossible!
Weakness? Never!
Syllables abhorred and shot on sight
The irony was wasted on you
For how could you deny my strength now?

Dead euphoria pricked the layers
Of frosted-glass
Blunted rims
No definition
At least, not yet.

Bubbling below the surface
not, of what I am,
rather of what I am to become.
