(I may have already posted some of these.)
Shimmer
--------
Profoundly she writes cursively upon topaz,
Upon scribbles themselves gleaming, themselves
Scrawled over dim shadows made of stars,
Made of crystalline clouds reverberating.
Oh, she tasted such liquid, and thus it was ice.
And her words transcended sitars and labyrinths.
They trisected dimensions without volume into
The colors of those spheres. Ah, in this glass
I spoke to her, and she was symmetrical.
For, she mentioned these droplets, yes.
But they were only ghosts; they were
Only wondrous, as were uncertainty's prisms.
She whispered to me her kiss. Yet I dreamt
Of her lies. I dreamed of her prayers, of
Those proclamations of cursive hexagons, each
Described subtly, iridescently, and verbatim.

Within Iridescent Stone
-------------------------
Within the hand is the flower; within
The flower is the pod; within the pod
There are the seeds; within the seed is
Each abstract color once yellow, now
Purple, now painful and confined. Yes,
Within me is the hole; within that there is
The vague truth; within the truth is
The subtext of oblivious geometry, surely.
And within these shapes and prisms and light
Is your voice; and within such wonder
Are the dreams, are the words mentioned
And imagistic. Deep within iridescent stone,
There the sphere is its own epitome as
But a rectangle. There within this flame
Is only magic's metaphors, is only
Empty infinitesimals betrayed but beheld but
Tempered by the ambiguities of everything
And all's superficial constituents.
.....................
Rays Of Vision
----------------
This light, these photons, the rays of vision, oh,
Iridescent are the sine-waves compounded and opposed
And added and summed to become all exactness
Multiplied by truth and its variations. Red to
Yellow to green to cyan to blue to magenta --
We diffuse and refract such color again.
And all equals its magnification, equals its
Contraction once focused by a strange lens dreaming.
For, we invert the image, and yet
It is sustained. We convert particles to
Fluctuations. But these oscillations reverberate
And then ascend in quite a blurry arpeggio.
Oh, this light, it is negated and amplified,
It is nullified and duplicated. But somehow
We see only one spark of perpendicularity.
Somehow, this radiation is our hallucination.
Or it may be conjectured, may be absolute
And therefore clangorous in its coherent rigor.
++++++++++++++++
Seen
-----
The cusp, the swirl, the loop,
The lemniscates, they are drawn by such light.
Within space and air, there the oval curl
Implies the darkness beyond it. Oh, seen
Are the specks between image and glare.
Seen are my blurry thoughts, each devoid
Of embodiment. Yes, seen is truth through
A window of wonder and metaphor. Oh,
I gaze onto the tangle, onto this
Moist suffering and its beauty. And
I see both our temptations and our hate.
I see circles and ellipses glowing, becoming
Their color and their fuchsia. I see
My obscured blindness surely astigmatic,
Surely iridescent but yet repetitive,
But yet grasped by the photons' edgelessness,
But yet grasped by these cosmic silhouettes of
Inwardness and intermediacy otherwise obvious.

Of A Spiral Somehow Concave
-------------------------------
The shape of a concave spiral; the spiral, the shape,
Obscures the quasi-sphere in which it is profound.
In its alliteration, it is drawn beneath the vertex.
In its scrawl, it is depicted via its intermediacy.
And yet it appears to be of glass. But it is
Transparent? Is it obvious in its ambiguity?
Yes, it is but a scribble re-represented. And
So, it attempts to rest upon such stone.
And in its fluid diffusion, it becomes this
Shape of a spiral somehow concave. In its
Concoction it is but a constituent of all.
And it denies it is iridescent. But, surely,
It has despised its own ascension. For,
It falls into the cement below it; and in
Its shattering it is stable; in its perception it
Is remembered; in its discovery it is composed
Of multiplicity carelessly elaborate.

(The following poem was one of the first I posted on this blog. But I repost it because it is on-topic.)
Iridescent Mauve
------------------
Benign is the grandiosity of this iridescent mauve. Such
Imagination expressed distracts our lines from the concave,
From all that pretends to be convex. Such lucid diameters
Repeat then coagulate -- because none are perpendicular.
Such erosion converges so as to eradicate this dream
Inside where I am invisible yet afloat. Therefore,
Benign is the gradual overwhelming of our salvation.
For in the causality of the metronome I am sipped,
I am shown to be distant and unseen. I am obvious
In my contagion, yes. Because benign is the sugar
That spills from my flask. For it descends
Into my final waking; it ascends unto my indecision,
Unto the scarlet of our blind prism, of our
Perplexing emptiness counted and then discarded
From intersections superimposed but epitomized surely.
*************************
Some Kind Of Perfection
-------------------------------
Each color, every point along the real-line,
Is somehow purple, unless it is isolated
And alone; then it is glowing in its
Own vision. But, unfortunately, not
One single hue, discovers itself in
Some kind of perfection,
Discovers itself resolved to
Its very purity. No, all frequencies
Of photons inspired, they completely
Find themselves to be violet. No,
They find themselves to be blue-green,
And still uncertain of their orangeness
Becoming yellow. For all sight
Washes away with the clear water
Poured over this canvas. All design,
All curves, imagine themselves made
Straight and unbroken. So I attempt
To distinguish the unresolvable, the
Unsolvable puzzle. For I am human.
But still I am strangely iridescent,
Strangely invisible.

Elements
-----------
The photon recited that aria
Of iridescence, that aura derived
From the fires of heaven, the
Emotion felt only in a sleep
Obscured by the water drowning,
By the air breathing, by
The earth encased within its
Soul now flat ... once again.
The prism which was light itself,
That vision gazing back upon
The hallucinator, it was in pasts
Long before our minds became
Real and imagined, it was every and
All elements; it was all; and
It was, and has been consistently,
The very emptiness containing its
Substance, containing its virtue,
Containing all awareness (of self,
Of selflessness) of everything, of
Every atom becoming as grand
As the entire universe created.
