between the gazer and the gazed
lays an infinite soul
she lays bare with a chiffon veil
beneath a starry night
moonlight exposes
raw beauty witnesses by the gazed
transparent to the gazer’s eyes
the veil summons her gazer
to look deeper
explore the uncharted
secrets of subject gazed upon
through this gazing ceremony
gazer discovers her essence
she gazes at herself
as none exists but the gazed
