Pictures Paint

And music played aloft, aloud
about my stilling heart
words to dance and thoughts en-trance
as smoke too played its part
Mirrors view enhance untrue
imbue as pictures paint
showing things as what they seem
and seem be things they can't
Mindful tricks are playing
staying feet are moving still
here in midnight's afterthought
with tempting truths revealed
Changing shades to serenade
well played in fading shroud
all about my stilling heart
as music played aloud
