The Temple of Sands

Conceit also comes with scarf
To accompany;
Gripping the finger of gloom,
Informs the story of stolen things;
Being a gatekeeper, hides
The connotation of hieroglyphic script . .

Even the tears, rolling down from eye
As blood
Dazzle the heart.
Orphan feelings make huts with
Umbrellas, drifted away
By the pampering storms.

The delight,

Thrown up & caught
Is left like a garland
Around the neck of
A beautiful sphinx
