Janis Kali

The wild sound of creation and destruction

Drove that Mercedes all the way from Texas

Wrapping it round the lamppost of America

Creating light and darkness in a single image

Wrecking tranquillity was her daytime occupation

Creating havoc her favourite night time passion

A constellation of starlit bourbon harmony

In the comfort zone of her southern hospitality

The Divine Creatrix of her own stellar universe

And the born destroyer of everything before her

Time and space an empty canvas for her image

Each single moment a vast horizon of homage

Nothing moves the stillness beyond her presence

Worlds collapse to nothingness by her caprice

And heaven itself a single jewel on her costume

Hell a mere facet of her beautiful endless terror

Saviours saints devils and sweet singing angels

Baubles on a necklace she wears for pleasure

Mere vanity in her divine imagination of mirrors

The sound of her voice rocks the vastness of time

Rendering infinity past before it happens

No one ever messes or dares drive a Porsche

In the presence of a blue jeaned Kali from Texas.

Stunningly beautiful homage. Wild and free-falling descriptions, bejewelled with diamonds of sparkling imagery-"A constellation of starlit bourbon harmony"..."And heaven itself a single jewel on her costume"...Great flow and rhythm. Superbly passionate and original. Kudos!

Lyrical lines there - great!

The imagery here touches on much more than a girl from Texas. Good work.
