Cover's not the book

Cover's not the book

A Poem by Joel M Frye

beauty bright
burns the soul's retina
leaving blind spots
blotches on the vision
of what burns
behind the beauty

look
        away
from the dazzling
surface

feel the fusion
of mind and spirit
exploding
just beneath

generating
intense light
radiating

out through
ever-expanding
infinite space
between love
and being

never look into
the eyes of the sun;
look beyond them
