Tonight My Melancholy Becomes Faint

We are a blended essence of overnight candied cotton and the exhalation of a cedar.
We are unknown dark wine and sawdust and too much poignancy in ethereal vegetables. 
We are a spring bird in the snow, a low rumbling of evening horizon thunder, a chorus of raw symphony and paisley flutterings.
We are nominally polar--the realest of dreams--the bear and his scrawny boy; a crinkled satin curtain covering a pane of no prerequisite. 
We are solid, bathed in the dew on clovers. 
We are the breeze breaking for a star, just as the un-breathable air stills.
We are calloused like jazz on well-worn brass, threaded with emerald and skies.
